Tennile starts with ... I have a potted dwarf lime and lemon tree. I bought them probably 3 months ago. I water them roughly 2 times per week. I just wondered if anyone had any tips on how to look after them and also if I need to cut them back at all. My lime tree had grown some new shoots but leaves that have grown from it are huge. Is this OK. Thanks for your help...since Im not great with plants | About the Author Tennile Liverpool NSW 10th February 2008 |

Tennile says... Thanks Bob, what about cutting them back. Should I remove the big leaves that are growing or just leave them. | About the Author Tennile Liverpool NSW 12th February 2008 |

Bob says... Just leave them unless the plant is too
big, then you can prune back after
fruitng.
Just remeber that its a fast changing
world in a small pot, so check it often.
