Growing Ippolito Blood Orange in Sydney
Choose a sunny, well-drained position receiving plenty of direct sunlight. Citrus trees perform best in fertile soil with good drainage.
Water regularly, particularly while establishing and during flowering and fruit development. Avoid keeping the root zone constantly wet.
Feed with a quality citrus fertiliser during the growing season to support healthy foliage, flowering and fruit production. Mulching around the root zone can help retain moisture, but keep mulch away from the trunk.
