We have had a lemon tree in a pot for a number of years. We bring it in
over the winter but last year put it in a place without enough life. It
lost many leaves and suffered some die back before we noticed. However,
this summer it has recovered outside and has put on a lot of new growth.

My problem is that it has stopped flowering, we used to get quite a lot
of fruit off it. Is it just a question of time?


Probably. Many plants (including citrus) will not flower when they
are growing vigorously, including after a setback. I had to prune
ours hard, and it didn't flower for a while.
