Hi, I've just bought one of these but the care instructions are in
german, french and spanish, and I can't find anything on the web.

It's a plant with citrus fruit.

I was told to
1) Keep it outdoors from Spring to October, then indoors for winter.
2) Water it once a month with feed every second month.

Does anyone know where the best place is in my flat to place it please?
Do they like direct sunlight? Is dry heat from radiators a problem? Do
they suffer from the cold?

Thanks for any help, I'm pretty new to this.

Just a quick note, but if you can type the instructions into;

Then you might get a translation, but if it's anything like the citrus
instructions i've seen in the past it'll probably end up saying something
like "much light, water infrequent, keep warmth". Not terribly informative.

Have to add that I got our first home grown and then home made marmalade
this year from a calamondin bush we bought some years ago. It was dirt
cheap having been terribly neglected by the GC, but its a citrus and
theycan be surprisingly hardy given some TLC and time. It's also got a
spur off the main stem, before the graft which is a lemon and last year we
had about 25+ calamondin's and 3 lemons off the same tree. Now I know it's
not meant to be a good idea, but kept well pruned it seems a very
satisfactory arrangement to me.
