[Arid_gardener] Question from Home-Hort WWW page

[olindmiller]

Citrus trees, unlike deciduous fruit trees, are not pruned to enhance fruit 
production.  Pruning should be limited to removing  dead or frost-damaged 
wood, to remove water sprouts, or to remove branches that get in the way. 
If you are not concerned with production, you could prune it now which could 
result in reduced production if buds are removed.  Or you could wait until 
after the fruit has been harvested.
