Planting & Care

To start seeds, plant them about 1/2 inch deep in a well-draining seed-starting mix. Keep the soil consistently moist and warm; germination can take several weeks. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots or outdoors in a sunny, protected spot. Water regularly, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Protect young trees from frost.

For container growing, use a citrus-specific fertilizer during the growing season. Prune lightly to maintain shape and remove dead wood. With proper care, your navel orange tree will become a beautiful and productive addition to your garden or patio.
