Dying Meyer Lemon - August 16th, 2006 at 05:22 PM
I repotted my Meyer lemon using plenty of TLC, 2 days ago.
I have kept it out of direct sun for 48 hours, didn't break the root ball, etc.
Today it's light yellow all over, every leaf, and some leaves are crunchy.
Yesterday the leaves were all curled up.
This tree wasn't a really good one to start with.
At least in my opinion.
The nurseryman picked it out for me and as he's a master gardener, I figured he'd know a good specimen.
Any idea on what has made the tree so ill? BTW, it's cool here now, and cloudy, so I thought it would be good transplanting weather.
I took off the 4 lemons it had, so as to help the tree focus on calming down and growing new foliage.
HELP !!!!
