Lemon Tree loosing leaves
I have had my lemon tree for eight months bought for me from a garden centre. When I first got it it seemed ok and there were small fruit and blossom on it. I have fed it every 7 - 10 days firstly with summer feed and then winter feed as instructed. The first problem I encountred not long after I got it was the new fruit going black and dropping off I was told by the garden centre that this may be due to lack of light. All summer the tree has been outside and I moved it into the sunnyest spot. For winter I brought it into my conservetory in the lightest place but now the leaves are falling off so fast it will soon be bear although it is still blossoming and there are fruit growing although they are still green. What am I doing wrong?
