Is this a genetically modified (="Improved") Meyer Lemon tree? Also can you confirm that yours did not arrive with aphids?

I purchased this for my Mom for her birthday. She loves it. I am unable to answer your question about aphids, however, she has not mentioned any problems

The tree is not genetically altered from my observations and did not arrive with aphids. Yet, the tree began to die within the first 7 days. The seller would not contact me after numerous attempts via Amazon, email, and phone calls. After three weeks I finally did reach the seller via phone, but the seller did not stand behind the product and said it was something I did to make the tree become ill (odd within 7 days I could kill a tree), which was untrue because the tree was in a warm climate, watered with proper drainage, and so forth. It was a waste of my money.

I don't know if it is genetically modified but mine arrived with spider mites

The tree didn't appear to be genetically modified and it did not arrive with aphids. The tree was expertly packaged and arrived looking in pristine condition. I was very disappointed, however, that the beauty and life of the tree didn't last long- it died within two months even though I followed enclosed care instructions to the letter.

I have no idea about genetically modified, but no aphids. But it arrived just like the picture and did great until I over watered...then got those gnats, and then used bug spray that is NOT supposed to harm plants. All the leaves fell off but she is still alive!! Good luck!

This is the answer they give on their website regarding GMOs. Are your products genetically modified? No. All of our products originate from identity-preserved, non-GMO seeds. This means that the seed planted in the ground is non-GMO. We do not guarantee the complete absence of GMO materials in our products because of wind drift, pollinators and our lack of testing equipment.

They claim to make only non-GMO products on the Aloha Medicinals website. Although I am no mycologist, I am going to say that no, this product is not genetically modified. The term hybrid only refers to the mix of strains used to culture the mushrooms.

Good Question, trying to call them now and ask...1-800-434-4246...it does not appear to be non-gmo...Not written any where on their package. Long waiting time so far. Maybe you will have better luck.

I wish I could answer that for you. That moth appears that larger than the tiny moths I was trying to kill. I apologize that I don't know their name but I would not recommend buying large quantities until you know for sure. For me, this product didn't do any good. It didn't even kill aphids. I found out recently that my Lysol All purpose cleaner can drop a house fly right of the air. I would try it, if these moths aren't on plants that you appreciate :) Sorry I couldn't answer you question.

I'm concerned about GMO's, too. I went to Now Foods website and it states that this product is NON-GMO. I can order now!

It is only heated no GMO... I guess you can say it is modified but not by genetics. Very high fiber content, start slowly adding it to avoid discomfort

well, my tree only lasted 2months and died-I did everything right, no clue why it died. I will be purchasing another one because the one I got my Dad for Christmas already has 6 lemons on it. All I know is my next tree purchase will be an Improved Meyer Lemon-it must be easier to grow. The day after I repotted my lemon tree the leaves all fell off one by one until it was bare-now its a crispy critter. Sad! Hope this helps your decision!

That is the answer that was provided by the grower, we actually don't know the difference ourselves, but this tree is classified as GMO by the grower.

The one we received came bare rooted with wet newspapers wrapped around the roots. I can tell you that the dwarf tree we bought last year now has 7 lemons growing. They are about the size of a peach but still green. We hope to be able to use them soon.

I chose not to use it on mine. But then I don't have a bug problem in it either. Contact the company and get a list of plants its safe to use on. I tried it on my epi's and they were not happy about it. Before I use it next year I'll have a list of the plants its safe to use on.

no idea. My guess though is no. It is not produced in enough quantity to warrant genetic modification

It isn't listed on the package, but on their website FAQs: "Are your products genetically modified?No. All of our products originate from identity-preserved, non-GMO seeds. This means that the seed planted in the ground is non-GMO.

I am not the seller so I don't know about the warranty. I gave my Lemon tree as a gift for Xmas and it's still growing, but I've had Meyers lemon trees for years and I keep them inside all year long. Just provide a sunny spot for them. I'm from Pittsburgh, by the way, so you should be fine.

I'm sorry I don't know for sure. I did read on one web site that it did work but that is a vary invasive bug. I would highly recommend either contacting Bayer through their web site or checking the Arbor Socitey web site or your local cooperative extension. This product has been excellent in keeping aphids and other bugs off my trees. It does work for the full 12 months.
