I am a professional landscape designer/installer in the Clovis, California area. The purpose of this blog will be to provide others with the knowledge, experiences, and expertise I have collected over the years of being involved in the green industry. I will be providing tips, tricks, and lots of pics. I will also be including basic fertilizing/pre-emergent, watering schedules. My goal is to provide the material in an entertaining, and practical way, that when applied will help you reach your goal of creating the garden of your dreams, rather than the garden from your nightmares! Were going to cover a lot of information, so get your tools cleaned up, slip on the muck boots and gloves and lets go create that garden oasis.
I need help saving my lemon tree. The leaves are turning yellow, curling, and falling off the tree. Any idea to save the tree? I live in the Southern California coastal region. Very mild summers.

Wow Scott! That doesn't sound good. Really without pictures and more information it is really hard to give an exact answer. Yellowing and curling can be caused by excess salt in the soil, aphids, lack of iron and nitrogen, Herbicide exposure, really there are so many variables. First look for signs of insects. I would look for aphids, white fly first. If you notice ants climbing around the tree, that is a pretty good indicator of some kind of sucking pest infestation. Send some pics and more detailed info if you can to soluslandscape@yahoo.com. In the meantime, here is a great link on citrus culture. http://ucanr.org/blogs/slomggarden/blogfiles/4260.pdf
