Well I've been trying to get my garden in shape for the summer. Last fall we got some trees cut back and removed for said garden so hopefully more sun will equal happier plants

.... a 'balanced meal' might also consist of a 'Weight-Watchers recipe' up against s'mores.

That's awesome.

If you have a good strong spray nozzle on your garden hose, give the aphids a good bath. Many of them will fall to the ground. They are too stupid to crawl back up the plant.

Don't forget to fertilize your lemon tree regularly. A healthy plant will be better able to deal with pests.

I'll give that a try. The aphids are on my artichoke now!!!!!

Having grown up in a non citrus growing zone, I am a bit clueless
on citrus care. What kind of fertilizer should I use for a meyer lemon?

There is a specific fertilizer for citrus plants. It should be in stock most anywhere that sells plant supplies.
