The oldest and hardiest citrus I grow. Some are more than 25 years old.

Awesome way to test an accurate cold hardiness on these trees! Nice video, Tom!

Great video, thanks for sharing. How cold did you get last winter and the winter of 2022?

Tom does your area get a lot of cool days during winter which helps citrus go dormant?

Yes, our winter weather in January averages about 34/55F. Of course, it’s a rare day that is exactly average, but we don’t often hit 80F in January, and we only rarely (5 years or so) have a day that stays below freezing.

Tom how long did your citrus seedlings take to bear fruit
@CitrusPalmsWithTom22 күн бұрын
It varies. Thomasville and mandarins take 4-5 years. Trifoliate hybrids usually take 5-7 years. Ichang lemon seedlings take more than 10 years, which is why grafted trees are the better option.
