Citrus Trees Replanted

We got the citrus trees fixed up and in their new home.

The orange tree in the middle size pot was swimming in water, as the pot's hole got plugged up. I cleared it and took a bamboo stick and pocked up in the roots to break them up a bit and provide some more drainage. We need to take it out of its pot and some point at clean it up and change the soil and compost.

The large lemon tree, now in the largest pot on the left, was root-bound in that smallest pot - poor thing. We got it replanted into the large pot with lots of homemade compost. It should be much happier now.

The smallest pot on the right is now home to our new lime tree. Loads of nice soil and compost. It looks happy.

These trees are on the west side of the house and get partial sun. You can see the nice blue containers from the street. Makes a nice backdrop to the garden.
