Even though many people buy orange feng shui plants with fruits most have the complaint that they never fruit after this. Some how people start feeling low about the feng shui of their space, and it also works to the psychology of your brain.
So decided to share a few important practical tips for growing healthy feng shui orange plants.

| Orange plant flowers |
From the green leaves after a few years, (ours began from six months) the plant breaks into tiny off white buds, the fragrance is what made me go near and smell them, actually it is a wonderfully refreshing citrus one. Loaded with white fragrant flowers, the flowers fall off , drop their white petals, leaving behind a small center of green
bud like fruit. This lucky small fruit, orange fruits grows in size and
looks almost like a green lemon. Gradually it grows in size and is a lovely shade of dark green color.

Sitting near
the orange plant in the evenings is a bliss as the citrus smell is
everywhere. Scientifically it has also been proved
that orange flowers are very good for migraines and
anxiety as well as depression patients. The fragrance is truly
of some citrus origin and it really uplifts your mood. A
dose of citrus perfume in your own house, the
freshness of the orange fruit and the hope of new juicy fruits all is
enough motivation to grow the orange plant. Though
we have a terrace garden and it is difficult to grow fruits in containers the
orange fruit plant is easily grown and also
does not require much care. The butterflies have a
favorite fascination for this plant to lay larvae and the
young caterpillars feed on the leaves( sometimes leaving the plant barren!).

Want a Really good orange
fruit plant grown in container:
1) As soon as the plant begins growing tall thick stem, about five to six inches, snip little tip of it.
|
2) Cutting the extra stems on
the orange fruit plant will encourage more and healthy big fruits on the
plant.
3)Fertilize the orange plant as soon as winter
ends so that the nutrients are absorbed before the onset of fruits and as spring ,sunlight, sets in the beautiful orange plant blossoms into a beautiful fully loaded with white flower tree.
4) After the
orange fruit plant has begun flowering do not disturb
the plant in any from except watering regularly. Personally I have seen that after flowering if you add feeds (greed to have large sized orange fruits!) the fruits drop off.
5) Never let the orange plant go dry in times of flowering and fruiting, though this is is a sturdy plant and can bear some time off, with a few skipped waterings.
6) Allowing the fruits to turn orange on plant itself is great to get natural taste but the birds surely find all the fruits first and gorge on them!
7) Large sized fruits also cling well to the orange plant, these are tough ones, but if your orange plant is weak/ diseased only then will they drop off fruits even when not ripe.
8) Most important tip which people often never think off, this is a fruiting and flowering plant, grows best under full sunlight. Even though you may have bought it for feng shui reasons please it need some amount of direct sunlight to flower and fruit.
The juicy orange fruits on the orange plant are a welcome sight for everybody and even on touching the fruits the fragrant smell of oranges is in the air. And the best part is to enjoy a cool orange drink in the hot summer afternoon, nothing like orange juice to beat the heat!
Do share your experiences with growing feng shui orange plants and if you have had any problems in them fruiting, or maybe it has blessed you with loads of blooms, or it is just growing and growing and no signs of fruiting! maybe I can help.
