Care
Citrus Tarocco prefers a sunny location in the garden. It comes out best as a tub plant. Choose a large flower pot with holes in the bottom. Give the Citrus Tarocco tree plenty of water immediately after planting. Pruning the tree is not really necessary, however, long branches or crossing twigs can be cut back in February. Water regularly in the summer, rainwater is preferred. Make sure the soil stays moist, however, do not drown the root ball of the tree.
