Yuja prefer consistently moist soil, but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering slightly during cooler winter months to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid issues.

Prune Yuja in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches to improve air circulation and shape.

Light pruning can also encourage fruit production and maintain a manageable size for your plant.

Yuja is typically propagated by grafting onto rootstock, as seeds can be variable. You can also attempt air layering or cuttings, though these methods may be less successful for home growers.

Grafting ensures desirable fruit characteristics.

Repot Yuja every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, preferably one formulated for citrus. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Repot in spring before the main growing season starts.
