No Fruit on Satsuma Tree

I have the same issue. Hoping its from the freeze. I also have an orange tree that was loaded last year and now not a single orange on it.

Try some citrus fertilizer this winter and hope it blooms in spring. It may take it a few years to recover from the freeze.

Thanks. That’s what I figured, but was hopeful since I Has grown well since and did have some blooms.

I am Just not seeing any buds and I am Wondering if anyone else is having this issue? Can I just Chalk this up to the freeze or should I be Adding fertilizer? It’s a good sized tree.

Be patient and give it another year. It could be worse--after last year's freeze, my satsuma tree doesn't have any leaves.

I had a baby satsuma. Potted it about a week before the freeze. I covered it. It has about six satsumas on.
I have a large, mature loquat tree which produces in April normally- it was barren this year.


I’m attributing it to the freeze and figured I’m lucky I covered my little guy.

I live in Arkansas. Found a cold hardy variety called Artic Frost Satsuma. It’s supposed to take down to 12 degrees. When we had that cold snap with 14” of snow on the ground for 5 days and we were in the single digits, I put a tarp over them with a space heater and four bales of hay per tree. One of my trees is loaded and the other one has only two satsumas one it. This is only the second year I planted them doing of 2020.

My loquat tree had clusters of just forming fruit on it, all frozen off. That freeze was ill timed and brutal

same boat with you. The satsuma tree looks to be very healthy, but no blooms or fruit this year since the freeze last year.

My lemon tree that was 15 years old died. it would produce tons of lemons each year. I was sad to cut it down.

Here in NE La mine died. Nothing grew back. Not replanting any citrus.

labor day seems way late to me to fertilize citrus
