Fruit - Citrus in Tasmania


Introduction
Most Tasmanians believe that lemons are the only Citrus fruit that can be grown in our cool climate. However, a recent visit of our group to Ian and Jill’s garden in Sandy Bay, Hobart showed a garden in which eleven Citrus varieties are grown successfully. Ian and Jill showed that there is far more potential for Citrus in Tasmania than most Tasmanians think there is. They inspired me to write this blog post. It discusses how to look after Citrus trees and what Citrus varieties can be grown successfully in Tasmania.
