Winter challenges citrus with shorter days and weaker light. Whether your tree lives indoors or outside, understanding seasonal care keeps it healthy through the quiet months ahead.
Don't just move your citrus from outdoors to indoors abruptly. This sudden change can stress the plant. Instead, over a week or so, start by placing your citrus plant indoors in its desired location for a few hours a day, gradually increasing the indoor time. Be cautious of leaf drop during this period; it's a common response to the change in environment, but the plant will usually recover.
