'This is when your tree is at its strongest soaking in the most energy thanks to sunnier days.' 'I would always suggest to avoid pruning a citrus tree during the months that it is flowering and producing fruit, which is throughout high summer. 'Pruning citrus trees just before or after their key growing season allows more sunlight to pass through, encouraging fruits to be nourished by the rays of brighter days and benefiting from additional air circulation, which helps to prevent disease,' says FLOWERBX's Whitney Bromberg Hawkings. While you can theoretically prune unruly citrus trees at any time, there are certainly peak times for pruning citrus trees. When to prune lime treesįLOWERBX's Whitney Bromberg Hawkings adds: 'Alternatively, lime trees are best pruned in early spring or late summer, or any time before blooming.' When should you avoid pruning citrus trees? 'Citrus trees like lemon or orange are best pruned in warmer regions between February and April just avoid doing so when it’s particularly hot! Meanwhile, they can be left alone completely until March in cooler climates,' says FLOWERBX's Whitney Bromberg Hawkings.
