Renelyn, I'm thinking it just may be due to our very chilly and very wet winter and spring. We just had some pretty hot weather, so watch in the next week or two, to see if you start seeing a flush and tiny blossoms starting to form. Especially if you fertilized with a lot of nitrogen before or during all the rains. You may have promoted just lovely green healthy leaves, and postponed your blossom time a bit.

Thank you Patty! You have just given me hope :-) I think what has thrown me is that I see other orange trees in my area/neighborhood already growing fruit..( and some of those trees aren't even taken care of! ) and here I still wait for blossoms. I have searched high and low on the internet and have not found any postings on the end of blossoming season, but you are right in that we had a wet/chilly winter and sudden hot weather. Thanks!

My orange tree bloomed normally, but my lemon tree was later than last year. The cool winter (and the cool summer last year) might have something to do with it.

Good luck!
