Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight and Climate Needs

As a sun-loving citrus plant, the China Orange requires ample light exposure.

• Sunlight: Requires full and direct sunlight (at least 6–8 hours a day) for optimal growth, flowering, and fruit production.
• Climate: Thrives in warm weather and must be protected from frost and extreme cold temperatures.

Watering and Soil

Proper soil and irrigation are key to preventing common citrus issues like root rot.

• Soil: Plant in fertile, well-draining soil, such as sandy loam, with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-8.0).
• Watering: Water regularly and deeply to keep the soil consistently moist during the growing season. Allow the top inch of soil to dry completely between waterings to prevent waterlogging.
• Fertilization: Apply a balanced citrus-specific fertilizer rich in micronutrients like zinc and potassium every 2–3 months during the main growing seasons.

The secure paper core packing method used for shipping ensures the plant is protected and well-ventilated during transit, ensuring you receive a healthy, genuine variety plant.
