Kumquat tree questions?

Question:I have a dwaft Kumquat tree planted in my backyard. It is in full sunlight but only about one year old. What is the best way that I can take care of it and do I need to give it supplemental feeding??

Thanks so!

Answers:
Kumquats require care akin to most other citrus.

When fruiting, keep it watered regularly, but don't over water it or drown it.

Use a citrus fertilizer (I use 10-6-4 or 8-4-8) about every three-four months or so (about 3 times a year).

Prune it (if desired) after the growing season.



Oh-- protect it from frost if your winters get cold (colder than zone 8).

One more thing I forgot- make sure you DON'T over fertilize because you can burn the tree.
