The Dwarf Fruit Trees Blog

Now here is the goal. A six footer with every single piece of fruit within lazy arm’s reach.

This gorgeous Dwarf Lemon Tree graces the small garden of a central city yard neighboring my children’s kindergarten.

You can see how fantastic this is for small spaces.

The shade tree behind it is a fruit also - a full grown fig tree. Notice how well a dwarf fruit tree “stacks” with a larger tree.

One of the easy things about Dwarf Fruit Trees is they make fantastic Indoor Fruit Trees.  

Whether you live in a warm or a cold climate, the dwarf fruit tree is ideal for bringing greenery, bright colors, gorgeous fragrances, and…. frankly….

companionship…

…indoors and into your daily work-a-day life.  

A fruit tree breathes life into your moods and moments.  

Flowering plants merely bloom, but Indoor Fruit Trees pulsate color into the room.  Going back to the very Garden of Eden itself, our minds are deeply connected to respond to fruit “ripening on the vine”.  

A fruit tree in your indoor space paints an interior design with the energy of tasty abundance. An impact eclipsing mere greenery alone. 

There are many wonderful considerations for your tree indoors: 

A sunny spot - what a bonus that your tree draws you to the sunshine.

An adequate container - in size not style…unlike most green plants that require a beautiful container too, the Indoor Fruit Tree itself blows away the pot’s importance to the eye. Even a big container can be as plain or as decorative as you like. 

Regular water and nutrition - a good well-drained potting mix, with some acidity for the citrus (adding coconut peat or other peat does the trick), and some compost tea, bokashi, or a commercial fruit tree fertilizer regularly throughout the growing season. 

A bit of spray - again bokashi or compost tea are good here, commercial sprays can also work. To help keep any unbalances of disease or pests from dominating your tree.  

Lots of Love, Talking, and Attention - no kidding.  Trees like great music too - particularly Mozart.

Feng Shui - Lime trees and Lemon Trees at the entrances to a home rock the Feng Shui and absorb bad luck - so say Lillian Too author of 10 million copies sold on the art of placement of things to balance energy. See Dwarf Fruit Trees Absorb and Kill Bad Luck and Evil Influence.  (Now we are talking!)

Please post your comments on favorite Indoor Fruit Trees you have growing in your home, office, studio, or other indoor space.

I give Dwarf Fruit Trees as gifts now in place of flowers and sundries.  Why?  

• Practically because they are easy to ship and convenient to buy online.
• Socially because they have a huge impact upon the recipient, much more so than non-living, non-growing, non-perennial “things” to give others. 
• Aesthetically because they are beautiful, particularly the evergreens such as Lemon.  

Isn’t it a great way to get a friend or relative (or yourself!) interested in growing their own organic fruit at home - sending a little productive tree as a gift is just the coolest idea in gift giving I’ve had in decades.
