Bush Food Garden

If you’re looking to grow one out of these regions then choose a sunny spot out of the wind and away from frost. The soil you use should be well-draining and remain moist. This tree can in fact handle low temperatures, low water and a mild frost once it is established.

Lemon Aspen can grow it successfully in a pot and it also works well as a hedge and doesn’t mind being pruned. Ideally it should be pruned in its first year so that it can grow in a shrub like shape. In the subsequent years give your tree a light pruning so that sunlight can actually reach the canopy.

It’s also a good idea to mulch the ground before summer.

Use a slow release citrus fertiliser in the springtime.

Until the tree is established water generously.
