Questions & Answers
Hi Sheri, We would love to help diagnose your plant. Please send us some photos along with a description of what is going on to info@starkbros.com.
Hi Elvira, You can grow citrus trees, even if you get snow and ice in winter, but you have to have a warm place indoors with grow lights to keep them while it is cold outside. My lemon tree makes a beautiful house plant from about October to May. I just make sure that It gets plenty of light from grow light bulbs. From May, I start putting it outside during the day, first in a protected spot and gradually move it out into the open, but I still bring it in at night. Once all danger of cold nights has passed, I will leave it outside. This routine seems to suit it as it is growing well. Good luck with your planting!
I don't think so. Not fo Az. Certain plants are restricted from entering Florida, California and P.R. Areas that can have the genetics of their money making trees changed negitively. So
No there is no tree included with this kit.
Stark Bro’s does not knowingly grow or offer genetically engineered plants or trees. We either graft our trees or grow them from cuttings.
Do you use neonicotinoids?
We prefer to use more earth friendly, softer chemicals like biological fungicides and insecticides, horticultural oil, insecticidal soap, and insect growth regulators.
Is this organic?
We raise our trees and plants as organically as we can. We do spray when necessary - primarily with biological/organic agents - to keep pests and diseases at bay in order to save a threatened crop, but you may raise the tree or plant as organically as you wish. Stark Bro’s does not knowingly grow or offer genetically engineered plants or trees (GMOs).
Every part of the lemon tree, from leaves to fruit, is laced with compounds that can upset your pets stomach.
I am sorry to hear that this has happened. Please email Info@starkbros.com with pictures and a brief description so someone can look into this for you.
The brick is a potting addition that provides a healthy space for the roots. Simply place it in the pot you intend to plant in and pour a few cups of water over it. After a few minutes, It will expand as it soaks up the water. Break it apart with your hands or gardening tool and then add your potting soil mix to fill the rest of the pot. It will hold moisture longer so you may need to water your plant less often but monitor the soil as you normally would.
Each plant would need its own kit as there is only 1 coco fiber medium in the kit. However you could by just the coco fibers separately.
The harvest dates of the most common citrus grown in Northeast Florida are from October – December of course this can vary on the age of the plant and maintenance.

I've never grown a citrus tree before, so a success kit seemed to be a worthwhile investment!
I am having issues with my lemon trees, not sure if I am watering to much or not enough. I have had the trees for about 4 years and only one has produced a few fruit. It had lots of blooms this…
