Why grow two citrus trees when you can enjoy two types of citrus from one tree?

The Fruit Salad Tree Lemon & Lime Citrus Splitzer combines Meyer Lemon and Tahiti Lime on a single double-grafted citrus tree. It is a practical and eye-catching choice for gardeners who want variety while making the most of their available space.

The tree has attractive evergreen foliage and produces fragrant flowers before developing its citrus fruit. It can be planted in the garden or grown in a large container, making it suitable for backyards, courtyards and patios.

SYDNEY GROWING & CARE GUIDE

Sunlight

Choose a warm, sunny position with approximately 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Good sunlight encourages healthy growth, flowering and fruit development.

Watering

Water deeply and regularly, particularly during hot and dry weather. Newly planted trees require more consistent moisture while establishing.

Keep the soil moist but avoid prolonged waterlogging.

Soil

Plant into fertile, well-drained soil. Adding compost or well-decomposed organic matter can improve soil structure and nutrient availability.

Feeding

Feed regularly with a quality citrus fertiliser during the active growing season. Follow the fertiliser manufacturer's recommended application rates.

Regular nutrition is important because the tree is supporting growth and fruit production from two grafted citrus varieties.

Pots & Containers

This citrus combination can be grown in a large container with suitable drainage.

Use a premium citrus or fruit-tree potting mix and choose a sturdy pot large enough to accommodate the developing root system.

Pruning

Light pruning helps maintain a neat shape and balanced canopy.

Remove dead, damaged or crossing branches and monitor the growth of both grafted sections so one variety does not become excessively dominant.

Graft Maintenance

Check regularly for shoots growing from below the grafted sections. Remove these unwanted shoots promptly because they can compete with the Meyer Lemon and Tahiti Lime growth.

Sydney Seasonal Tips

Spring: New growth and flowering become more active. Begin regular feeding and increase watering as temperatures rise.

Summer: Keep moisture consistent, especially during hot periods. Mulch around the root zone to reduce moisture loss.

Autumn: Continue feeding while the tree is actively growing and producing fruit.

Winter: Growth may slow in cooler weather. Adjust watering to rainfall and avoid keeping the root zone excessively wet.

Helpful Tip

For the best results, give your Fruit Salad Citrus Tree plenty of sunlight, good drainage, regular feeding and consistent watering. Light pruning can also help maintain a balanced tree with healthy growth from both citrus varieties.
