Excellent information friend! 😊
Good info.
Thank you for such a great presentation. Makes me want to plant more citrus, but I have no room for it. But I can graft, my neighbor has an excellent lemon tree. I'm gonna graft a couple of chunks onto my pink lemonade. I might even try. Grafting some of the lemon tree to my tangelo. Thank you again. Brian.
I was so amazed when I had my first Owari Satsuma ripen on my tree here in MA. I had no idea that it was possible and that citrus actually need cooler temps to sweeten up. I eventually lost some and got rid of them because they were to heavy to move but I could not resist getting another Satsuma last year and brought it in early in a south facing window and in a clay pot and I have not had any leaf drop and it does not look stressed. It does seem to be dormant with very little growth. There is something about the contrast of living in a cold climate and having something tropical and in addition having bear fruit. I'm thinking of getting a meiwa kumquat but I know they are more of a challenge in a cold climate. I don't want to have to shuffle around to many container plants.
next spring i should give you some of my Shasta Golds. they are my favorite with rich sweet tropical flavor. Gold Nugget is not related to Tahoe, Yosemite or Shasta. I grow them all and are superior citrus fruits.

You are so lucky to be able to grow a variety of citrus trees at home. I love the way citrus trees look, such pretty green foliage and brightly colored fruits. When I was growing up, the only orange variety available at grocery stores in my area, were Navel Oranges. In recent years, they have quite a few varieties of oranges and tangerines for sale. It has been nice getting to try something different. What is the pink flowered tree in the background?
