So I'm pretty sure hail isn't good for citrus

We were just getting ready for bed last night when the thunder and lightning started up... And then the torrential downpour and hail started!!

I would say they were about nickel sized and came down for about 5-7 minutes. There was no way I could get my trees inside in time so I let it ride.

Surveying the damage this morning it looks like I lost quite a few leaves and a few minor branches and flowers but no fruit was damaged I don't think- luckily! One branch that snapped I have planted as a new Meyer cutting.

How have you guys dealt with hail?
