They are hungry feeders, and need two types of food - one for summer, and one for winter. They also like being outside for the summer. They also like terracotta pots (good for air), and special citrus compost. Once you've got the hang of it, they are surprisingly easy and rewarding. Try reading Success with Citrus by Patricia Oliver.
