  • Long video, with some poor audio, somewhat boring, but educational none the less.
    I've had these in pots for many years, I got them as large trees approx 10 gal, maybe 10y ago. I believe they're close to 15-20yr old. They have fruited in the pots, but I can't put them in a bigger pot, so in the ground they go. I will have to protect them with a cold frame for the winter. Kill temp around 25F. Only need one tree to fruit, although some trees will only produce male flowers for a few years, then they will finally fruit.
    thanks for watching.

    A sawzall with a pruning blade is a great tool for cut thick roots.

    Nice work y'all. Wondering if you considered root pruning those circling roots visible in both trees, they have a tendency to girdle & kill the tree as it grows. Also compromises tree stability. Unknown if this species or Garcinias in general can withstand heavy root pruning. Love your videos

    I wasn't able to win any of the auctions this year but hopefully I'll get one next time. The superior lemon drop we did manage to win though just pushed out a flower bud the other day.

      @stelag9215 Did you get the superior lemondrop this year or have you had it for a while? I bought one from Adam this year.

    So Lucs will withstand the cold spells you get when it's that size? I have seedling Lucs here in 10B California and wonder if I should bring them in for winter

      I have 2, 4-5' trees in my yard here in Florida, zone 9b and they went through last winter's cold spell just fine w/a frost cloth thrown over them...and my yard was down to 24-25 F. Didn't even have any leaf burn. They are in a lower part of my yard with some overhead cover from a large S. Magnolia and a live oak.
