Inspiring!!

Thanks for the update video Jimmy. The citrus has recovered really well. My guava recovered from last year and the loquat tree I started from your seed is like 4 foot tall now

[@jimmyva4407]

That's great! your loquat may flowers next year. All my five loquats are flowering now, but will not hold fruits as always, too cold here. Any pineapple guava in-ground? one of my trees is holding some fruits now for the first time. In ground with no protections.

@@jimmyva4407 I have the loquat inside the greenhouse 🙂 I also have a pineapple guava in the ground east facing wall. No protection for two years and it's growing well. No flowers yet.

[@jimmyva4407]

@@GardenForaged Should put the loquat tree outside as well, will be too big for the greenhouse. Make sure to water these two a lot. They will grow very fast.

Jimmy,your plants look so healthy.Do you use anything on them for bugs and disease? I' m also in zone 7 b and have satsumas and Meyer lemon and some other citrus. Thanks for the nice tour of your citrus.

[@jimmyva4407]

I used to use random stuff from Homedepot, but now I do spray down the trees with water a lot. I believed this help s.

Excellence.

What's your best tasting cold hardy citrus? I'm in Georgia zone 8A.

[@jimmyva4407]

They are all good, but I think the Owari Satsuma.

[@Cristofre]

North Georgia mountains zone 7B: Absolutely Owari Satsuma. I've had two for 10+ years planted in ground in my greenhouse. The only heat they have is a few light bulbs on a really cold night. They have survived the low teens undamaged many times. They are sweet and tangy, "zipper skin" comes off in a few pieces, almost no seeds. These are my favorite citrus of any.

They look great and did u build that lean against greenhouse or bought? If bought could u please send link? Thanks

[@jimmyva4407]

I built the frame with galvanized pipes bought from Homedepot and cover with Solexx panels.

[@patrickun8655]

@ thanks

[@xplicitmentality]

What state are you in? I'm in PA and want to plant some citrus outside but I am nervous. I am also in zone 7b.

[@jimmyva4407]

I am in Springfield,VA. I do have to cover they up in November to April every year.
