How to plant a mandarin tree?
To grow a mandarin tree in the ground, choose a sunny spot sheltered from the wind. The best time to plant a mandarin tree is in spring, after the risk of frost. Prepare a planting hole twice as wide as the tree's root ball. Mandarin trees prefer humus-rich, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. If your soil is too clayey, add sand to improve drainage. There's no need to add fertiliser; the mandarin tree just needs a little well-decomposed compost once a year. Make sure you water regularly, especially during dry spells, but do not leave standing water at the roots. If you need to transplant your mandarin tree, preferably in spring, taking care not to damage the roots. By following these growing tips, you'll be able to enjoy delicious, juicy, sweet tangerines straight from your garden.
