# My lemon tree has stopped growing. All of the leaves have fallen. And…

_Posted by Bianca on 2024-08-27_

My lemon tree has stopped growing. All of the leaves have fallen. And the plants growth has just stunted. I believe it was overwatered so I stopped watering it for a few days. And kept it dry. However today I watered it again. I’m not sure what to do to make it grow again. Any ideas on how to make it grow again? It does get direct sun, which was never an issue before but it has been getting around 90 in my area
