Mikan Orange Tree

I bought this Mikan Tree in June 2019 and harvested the fruit in December. Today I noticed new leaf growth and buds. I could count about 10 buds, but hope it develops more. I transplanted the tree to a larger pot and was worried it might have root shock, but the transplant did not seem to bother it at all. 
(4 March) I counted about 20 blossoms. I got about 15 Oranges last season and hope to get the same or a few more this season. Not bad for a small fruit tree in a planter.
(10 March) My Mikan tree has so much new leaf growth and more blossoms than a week ago. I got about 15 Mikan last season, but have counted over 30 blossoms so far. It is going to be super heavy, so I will need to prepare a trellis.
