Care Tips for Growing Cipo Weeping Oranges
Sunlight:
Place your Cipo Weeping Orange in a sunny, sheltered spot. They need at least six hours of direct sunlight daily to thrive and produce fruit.
Watering:
Keep the soil consistently moist but well-drained. Allow the top few centimetres to dry out between waterings — especially during cooler months — to avoid overwatering.
Feeding:
Use a specialised citrus fertiliser during the growing season (spring and summer). This helps encourage strong growth, glossy leaves, and abundant fruit.
Pruning:
After fruiting, lightly prune to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Remove any dead or crossing branches to promote good airflow.
Frost Protection:
Cipo Weeping Oranges love warmth. Move pots to a protected area or cover them during frosty nights. They perform beautifully in most parts of New Zealand when given shelter from cold winds.
