From
the green leaves after a few years... 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 off 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. Awesum, Heavenly Citrusy and Tangy Orangy!
Orange Fresh Green Fruit on Plant |
Growign Good Luck mandarin oranges in containers has been considered very auspicious in feng Shui. Orange fruit trees grown near main doors and entrances are symbols of wealth and prosperity luck.
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, be careful as sometimes they feats upon the total plant leaves leaving the
plant barren!

Cutting the extra stems on the orange fruit plant will encourage more
and healthy big fruits on the plant. The plant grows bushy and the main stem is strong.
2)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.
3) 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 or fertilizer in greed
to have large sized orange fruits, the fruits drop off. Allowing the fruits to turn orange on plant itself is great to get natural taste. 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.
4) Most important after setting fruits, 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 watering.
8) Most important tip which people often never think off, this is a fruiting and flowering plant, grows best under full sunlight, but is effected by evil eye and you might want to protect the orange tree from others touch. Even though you may have bought it for feng shui reasons please it needs some amount of direct sunlight to flower and fruit and also some protection from evil eyes. A fully loaded Orange plant is a beautiful sight, tie three red ribbons to it. I also tie old sued CD discs so that the light reflects beautifully from the plant and it also reflects back the negative energy coming by from others view.
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!But yes, the Lucky orange plants have small oranges so quite a task to get some quality of juice! I tasted the tangy, they are bit sour and tangy , they have big seeds, but of course own grown is for the love of gardening! and Love of Feng Shui!
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.
Thank you.

Israel consumes roughly 3,500 tonnes of pineapple every year, of which more then 3,000 tonnes come from local production in fruit and veggie baskets. The majority of this supply is grown on some 120 hectares by only 30 or so different growers, mostly located in the central and northern coastal plains of the country.
