I gave this Mandy some copper about a week ago as the leaves are curled and slightly yellowed in one area but think it may need something else like zinc or manganese - open to suggestions!

I think this is the one I have, Anyway it is a mandarine grafted onto dwarf rootstock.  Heavy fruiting this season and last hoping this years will actually mature as last year (08) all fruit got blasted from the tree due to storms. easy to grow, fertilize and prune like all the rest.

Dwarf Mandarin (Grafted) ^2/10

Comments: -

2nd year in pot. Re-potted this year as plant does not seem to be growing much - upwards a little but not spreading. However, roots are still shallow so does not appear to be pot-bound. Some flowers last year, no fruit. Leaf-miner seems to be a problem as all young leaves are affected and turn curly. I have been cutting them off - probably explains why the plant is not growing :-). This year I have decided to spray eco-oil at every single leaf bud that I see.
