    Hello Nosferato,

    Calamondin suppose to be not difficult to grow at all ( and to over winter) and during winter they do loose some small amount of leafs (but not all over), are you sure you are not feeding too much ? over feeding will sort of burning it and it shows by loosinng it's leafs.
    The other thing you should care for is that he is not too close to the heating or under water ( they will shed leafs too with these 2 conditions) and the other hand they don't like too wet too.
    Where do you place them currently ? Could you give more info ?

    Cheers,
    Momol

      They sell these plants in the garden centre just up the road from me. I am pretty sure they are outdoors even now - is yours maybe too warm?
