Late Summer Citrus Update

[@GodIsLove447]

Thank you for sharing my brother. You're passionate about growing.

very nice! I can't grow in the ground, i'm in zone 5b next to the rockies. Have to do everything in containers.

leaf curl can be from overwatering too.

Very nice collection!! Had a feeling your mystery citrus was Thomasville, my seedlings are strongly trifoliate at first. The SanCitChang seems very promising!!

[@CitrusPalmsWithTom]

We will see on the SCC. One book describes the trifoliate SCC foliage as “resembling Morton citrange,” which it very much does. The other one - which I have seedlings of - is unifoliate and has a large orange-yellow fruit.

@@CitrusPalmsWithTom Definitely one I’d like to graft out in 8A

Looking good on the citrus. I hope you get a lot of fruit! The mystery citrus looks like a Thomasville to me, did it come from a seeds you sprouted?

[@CitrusPalmsWithTom]

Yes, I’ve grown many over the years, but hadn’t in a while and I had put this one aside and lost the label, so I was wondering if it was something different.

Tom how cold was the freeze of 2022 christmas

Hi Tom, did you ever get any loquat fruit? Mine usually freeze in the winter. Your citrus trees look beautiful.

@@doggiefamily908 I actually grew the tree in the video from seed, so yes, but it takes a mild winter. I only get fruit about once every four or five years.
