YouGarden Citrus Blood Orange Fruit Tree, Established in a 4 Litre Pot, Approximately 80cm Tall, Great for Pot Growing, Mediterranean UK Gardening

I took delivery of this little 'Moro' blood orange tree a couple of weeks ago. I'm very happy with the quality: deep green leaves, healthy bark (and incredible 2cm or longer spines!) I have given it a citrus feed, pop it out in the garden when it's sunny (it will go out permanently once the weather warms up), and can see new leaves beginning to sprout.

What a tree and cheaper than buying direct once you include p&p. My tree from bottom of pot to top of crown is about 110cm it's in fantastic health and i counted at least 40 proto oranges.I won't keep them all as the tree is still young and for it's size no more than 20 is recommended.I will leave it in its pot this year and pot on to a slightly larger pot next spring.This is my second tree as i left the other one out in the severe frosts of Dec/Jan it's still alive but required a really hard pruning and will need a year to hopefully recover so take note.I'll be buying a large 'Bearss' Lime Tree in future if this blood orange is anything to go by.Citrus are pretty easy to care for use a citrus feed do not overwater,don't let sit in water and defo don't leave out in the frost!

This little tree is brilliant! It arrived well on time, a height as described, was well pruned and shaped, in a good sized and well watered pot, has new growth and numerous flower buds. I am so very pleased with it, and look forward to it developing further. Many thanks for such a good plant.

It came to me looking amazing with some fruit and loads of flowers . The min the weather warmed up I moved it out side to see it lose all it leafs and fruit . It tryed to grow and did not do well . Toward 1st cold snap I brought it in the house there it lost the last 2 leaf it had . It started to slowly bonce back and now is leading out well . But no fruit would say this plant is a pest magnet though . Dispite this it still is growing new leaf’s even though it had a big spider mite issue that I can’t seem to bring down to lower numbers . On a plus note the other plant around it have not had as much issue with spider mite due to this plant taking most the issue .

This product is giftable but could benefit from clear instructions on how to care for and get the best from your plant,

5 small oranges already on the plant when it arrived. Very healthy green leaves. Surprised how large it was when I got plant out of the box. Very pleased.

It came covered in white powder, but I sprayed a heavily diluted baking soda spray and later dishsoap too on the leaves. It's fine now. I can't wait until next year when it flowers and produces fruit. Edit 12/05/25 - It's doubled in size with leaves but I'm not seeing any flowers or fruits yet. Will that come this winter??

The tree arrived infested with Wooly Whitefly. When the tree arrived it had white droplet residue on it (the residue you csn see on the second photo is how the plant arrived. I didn't do that). I'm assuming because it had been sprayed with pesticide before being shipped due to the pest issue being known prior to shipping. As you can see from the attached photo there is evidence of Wooly Whitefly on the tree. Thankfully I didn't place the tree close to any other plants. Now I have to wait for the tree to be collected and the only option is for Evri to collect it and of course I have been given no indication of the collection time. I've just been told it will be collected within 1-2 business days and that they can't specify a time. I believe the trees are actually sent by and from a company called YouGarden. I would avoid purchasing these plants unless you want to risk dealing with pest issues
