Advice for lemon tree πŸ‹

My mom has a lemon tree which was doing well last year but this year all the leaves turned yellow and fell off.

The tree lives in a glass house (in England so no real intense heat or light!) She repotted the tree in a larger pot with fresh soil a week ago and already a few leaves have sprouted and little flowers.

Can anyone recommend how much and often she might need water to help her thrive??

Without feeling the soil? It's hard to say "water every ___ days". There's a rthymn to watering, not a schedule.

BUT!! Have no fear! My lemon trees have lost ALL their leaves in the winter and grown them all back by summer. (:

I'm in the southern US and my tree stays outside. I have to water it every few days because it is hot as all get out.
@sarahsalith that’s reassuring, thank you! My mom and I are pretty new to this plant business so just adjusting to what’s normal and what’s a concern! 🀣

Thanks so much for the advice πŸ’š
I am happy to help, Emily! (:

The flowers smell AMAZING, don't they?!
