PVC is pretty tough to hold up, so I hope they hold up.

I got both of those this spring. My brother had some before and they died back to the ground ever year but I'm hoping I can do better with them. Do you have them?

Thanks.

I think about 8 years old.

I think you should be able to grow it fine. It never comes up to early for me.

Yes they are coming along nice for how cold we got. I thought the same thing about the last plant, I have a small US-852 about the same size and the leaves are a lot bigger on it so I don't know for sure what is going on but will be interesting to find out what the fruit are like. Thanks for the offer on the the 5 star citrumelo and Bishop citrandarin but I already got some this spring, but I'll keep that in mind if they don't make it through the winter. Have you ever grown carolina lime or dragon lime?

@@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 you're welcome! Yes I have one specimen of each, I'm keeping the carolina lime in a pot in an unheated greenhouse and the dragon lime is in our test orchard. Both are growing very nicely for their first season, I'll show them off in a video soon.

@@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 I have yet to try carolina lime yet though, but we did get to sample dragon lime when unripe (green) and ripe (orange) and found it tasted like a more bitter lime when green, and had a bitter lime/mandarin flavor when orange. We'll see how it tastes grown here in NC however, those fruit were taken from Stan's tree in SC which is not in the best of health.

I have tried to root that with no luck so far. I have heard of some people doing it though. Stan the citrus man sells Prague, he is a great guy, just give him a call.

@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 yeah I've tried for more rhan a year lol. He is out of them whenever I contact him. How old is ur prague?

Some branches are better then others. I thought the fruit set was not that good for how many flowers it had but I know it has trouble setting fruit.

Got down to 0F this last winter.

I have not. I might should try it though, have you? I have thomasville seedlings I sprouted and did not need more thomasville yet.(:

@@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 I have not. I am currently 3 weeks into trying to air layer my brown select. I have 1 little Thomasville that I just bought that I wanted to try it with.

sorry, but I don't have any extras.

About 5 weeks.

The taste on the one I have are not that good, pretty puckering like a green persimmons. It is just a wild one I bought though and i hear some of the name kinds are better.

I had 3 trees and this is the only one that made it. it seems to like it here pretty well. For the next week everyday is over 100F here.

I know what you mean, the pot is already heavy and I'm going to have to get it in to the house come winter.

@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 Hopefully you get a harvest before too long.

Bring them in the house.(: Would love to get a big full heated greenhouse some day but for no this will have to work.

@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 Ok, I'm thinking about getting one

Thanks.

Thank you.

I have a lot more already, I'll show them in a later video. Most of them have trouble living here because of cold.

Is it absolute cold, or do they tend to break dormancy early and then get damaged?

@@CitrusPalmsWithTom Some of both. All my citrange died a few years ago when we went down to 0f. Alot of them try to come out to early in the spring which can set them back.

@@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 that is a problem, particularly with citranges. Citrumelos are better.

Each one of my trees are different in taste and berry size, but all came from one mother tree.

@@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 nice, how long did it take for them to fruit? there's so many trees growing wild around town, might just clip a branch and go from there but if I can plant seeds might try that too

Thanks for watching!

Thanks! I'm looking forward to see what they become. I tried email you about the TaiTri seedlings but my email is having trouble, did you get it?

I had no idea that it would do it. But it seems to be doing fine.

I had it flower and fruit last year but the fruit did not get ripe.

@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 that's awesome!

I'll have to try that if they don't get ripe. Do you have a recipe?

@@sweethomealabamahomestead4504 any slaw recipe will work.
