I brought my trees in first week of October, one of my trees ( lemon-orange tree) has lost more than 2/3 of it's foliage, had to cut 3-4 of it's small branches all the way to the trunk due to branch die back. It was stressed from the wind and fell over couple of times over the summer:( Now it has only 4-5 leaves on the very end of its branches. The rest of the trees only lost 2-3 leaves each. My trees are in my sunroom, the outside light is all they get, don't have supplemental light on them.

First of all wow mike!! Holy moses! I don’t even know what to say I’m speechless those are soooooo beautiful! What kinds are they what’s your favourite ones? Where do you buy your orchids mike? Also what is the most fragrant? Lol so many questions! I hope one day mine will flower like that! Do they need lots of heat and humidity and sunlight mike? I’ve just put mine in a north facing window for now but in the summer I guess I could move it into the greenhouse. Amy lol I miss posts too all the time! Amy I bit the billet thanks to you I now have a ponkan and another Yuzu coming lol! I was looking at the litchi and banana trees and other tropical fruits lol oh and I’m seriously contemplating a jaboticaha tree. Speaking of which how is yours doing and did you get some fruit and how about the miracle fruit? I know bob is the expert in jaboticaba trees so I really would love to try but I figure I’m going to do one at a time for now I’m trying to focus on my one cattleya lol you have orchids too right amy I’d love to see pictures!

I saw that you’re trying to figure out what to do with your yuzu fruits I made them into this chilli paste called yuzu kosho if you like spicy foods you’ll love it it’s basically salt, chilli, and yuzu rind and the put it in a mortar and pestle I’m addicted i cant eat anything without it now lol. It’s a Japanese chilli paste recipe y9u can eat it with meats or in y9ur soups anything really it’s really gets your appetite going!

Oops, there goes another rubber...oops there goes...another rubber tree plant! In addition to the identification, let's try to get you some help, which has been short in supply from the above posters--no real fault of theirs, it's an ID thread. Yeah, it looks like a bit more light might be helpful. Not too much, rubber trees are really capable of tolerating low light, and you don't want to suddenly shock it, but bring it up to some brighter light, then brighter again. It should improve. They do like bright light, but not direct sun. My mother kept one alive in deep shade and barely indirect light, but...well, that plant wasn't what I'd call happy. Most of them are a bit more hoggy for soil space than a cup, so that cup won't do for long, and I don't think that has a bottom drain in it either? You'll want a nice, light well-draining mix of soil with a drain at the bottom. They hate sitting in water, so a drainless cup is a bad idea. Here's two great articles for you to start with that'll help you out: https://www.apartmenttherapy.com/rubber-plant-our-best-tips-for-growing-and-care-237390 https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/rubber-tree/how-to-care-for-a-rubber-tree-plant.htm The second is more basic, but I like the first. :-) Although they can get fifty feet tall, you may certainly prune the thing regularly to limit height. My mother's? It never needed that as it never lived long enough. :-) I hope that helps past just the simple ID.

Yes, but if they thrive, and I hope they do, you’ll have to replant them in a bigger pot before too long. My understanding is that young roses of whatever size need to grow roots right away, before they put energy into canes and blooms, so it’s best to give them more room right away and avoid the shock of another transplant down the line. Six hours of sun, lots of fresh outdoor air, and thorough soaking at the root level once or twice a week: that’s all they need this spring and summer. most people would suggest you go to helpmefind.com with the names that came on the labels of your roses, and use their Plant Search feature for more info. There is a miniature Rose forum on this platform as well. Have fun! Minis are a lot of reward in a small space.
