The varieties of citrus I want to grow outnumber the spots I have available for planting. Luckily, citrus grows very well in containers.
The list of reasons to grow citrus in containers is long:
• Limited space for all the different varieties you would like to grow.
• Unfavorable weather conditions make growing citrus outside year-round difficult.
• Poor soil and drainage issues prevent planting in the ground.
• Proximity to garden beds. Growing citrus in containers keeps the citrus roots out of your raised beds and garden.
