# Hi everyone, my lemon plant has started to bloom again after…

_Posted by Tina on 2024-06-12_

Hi everyone, my lemon plant has started to bloom again after suffering from root rot this passed winter. She was doing great and now she’s beginning to drop flowers again (10 in one night.) Does anyone know the cause of this // any way to help? I make sure to let her fully dry out before watering here again so she doesn’t rot and I make sure to carefully dig holes for better watering and ventilation. I have one lemon that survived from winter (shown below) and it’s the highlight of my life. PLEASE HELP

ps I believe the spots are pollen they come off with a light wipe and our other plants have it too!

Have you checked the pH in the soil? I know lemons like a certain balance.

She’s still a little too young to hold fruit. She will probably not even hold onto the one you have going. A lot of people suggest popping them off so they focus more on growing new stems, leaves, roots.
