I planted a Meyer lemon grafted with a Tahitian lime 3 years ago, & the lemon is a prolific fruit bearer but the lime whilst being equally healthy has not even shown a sign of blossom. Any thoughts?

You could try giving the plant some potash to encourage flowering in the lime, but maybe it is just to young, meyers always seem to fruit quite young, I don't know but worth a try.

I have a lime tree, i think it is, the leaves are very nice , i have had 1 flower last year and then the tiny fruit dropped off in the early stages. this tree isnt a young one, it was in the garden when we moved there 2.5 years ago. Last year i pruned it back hard, as i was sick of it and of its bugs living in the leaves, even with continual spraying. what should i do, i would be happy to chop it down.
