How about a really terrific book?
Here's my review of 'Bountiful Container', which is a
wonderful book on edible container gardening.
I just cannot say enough good things about this book and, to
the best of my knowledge, it is the *only* really useful
book devoted to edible container gardening. (The majority
of which is done outdoors, of course.)
The authors do cover citrus trees in the "Fruit" section -
four full pages and quite detailed directions. They picture
the trees being outside in summer, and brought inside in
winter in northern areas.
Cheers,
Pat
