Sweet Orange Citrus x sinensis

Sweet Orange I like the article

Irrigation Sweet OrangeTenere asciutto
We suggest watering the The Sweet Orange every 4-5 weeks with 1-2 buckets of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water. From April to October let’s remember to clean our orchard periodically from infesting plants, which otherwise use a part of the water and of the fertilizer that we feed our plants.

Temperatures Sweet OrangePosizione mezza ombra
Locate this plant in a partially shaded place, where it is exposed to solar rays during the coolest hours of the day. These plants don't like the cold weather during this time of year. If the minimum night-time temperatures are very harsh it is best to cover the The Sweet Orange with non-woven fabric.During the winter season we advise protecting the roots of the youngest species with straw or dry leaves; when planting young plants we can ensure them to a stake, which maintains them erect.
