# I have this random plant that has sprouted a few months ago in my now…

_Posted by Carrots🥕 on 2026-04-08_

I have this random plant that has sprouted a few months ago in my now dead waffle plants pot and I am unsure of what it it , I moved it to a small pot then to a medium pot today and noticed it had one big curled root ; any ideas of what it could be would be helpful :)

Looks like a citrus seedling. Lemon or Lime maybe.

The harder curly root would make sense too.

This is my lemon from seed that’s a few years old.

Do citrus plants grow big??? How do I care for it??

#### Donna S replied on 2026-04-08

If it is citrus, then yes-it’s basically a tree. But it won’t get big for a while. Did you try having Planta ID it? I used Google Lens earlier but did not ask Planta,
