lemon tree!
I was given a columnar lemon tree for Xmas thatt is wound round 45cm bamboo canes in a tripod. It has 15 lemons on if. Lady in shop apparnetly said it would be 4ft high if unwound. Should I unwind it and stake it as a tree or can it still grow in a tripod shape. The thickest stem is about the thickness of an adults finger.
