Cold Hardy Citrus / Giant honghe papeda
« on: February 10, 2023, 11:39:11 AM »
Was doing some research a few days ago and came across this album of citrus hongheensis in Yunnan. HUGE trees I've never seen a citrus of that size before. More closely related to kumquats than ichang papeda. Petioles are almost double the size of the leaf.

They grew fine, I just left them outside in the freeze recently (forgot to protect), so hoping to find a positive outcome
How did these grow for you?Sprout now. Going to take them outside probably next month.

Can't say for sure now until spring or summer, but here is an minor update so far. 9F.
Citrus taiwanica has some stem damage and leaves still attached, looks sad. It's a 1 year old seedling so it might get hardier over time.
TaiTri looks good, just some minor defoliating no stem damage.
5* Citrumelo is the same boat, leaves dropped but no stem damage.
N1Tri x Citrus, Ichangstar60 x Citrus, Citrus hongheensis x Citrus lost label for them so its F2 of one of these three. Some appear dead visually and all of them are defoliated but some have green stems.
More updates in May for more accuracy regarding if any will resprout.
Some ornamentals like Persea liebmannii are unphased.

I keep hearing conflictions between kumquat varieties being zygotic or not. So meiwa is zygotic?

Went down to 9. I’ll figure out what is damaged or not probably after a few days since we’re still below freezing for over 24 hours.

Cold Hardy Citrus / Citrus damage after freeze
« on: December 23, 2022, 12:59:23 PM »
There is currently an ongoing hard freeze happening now and probably the weekend. I would like to hear any data of frost hardiness of any citrus varieties following the event. It's going to get doen to 10 degrees F here, so I'll record my data and not protect anything.

Eremolemon is actually a citrus glauca x grapefruit instead of a lemon.

Cold Hardy Citrus / Re: new thoughts on breeding hardier citrus
« on: August 11, 2022, 05:13:35 PM »
Precocious trifoliate in my experience can be able to bloom 3 times a year, and right now I see another flower bud preparing to open probably next week. Not able to hold any fruit because of its size but still has viable pollen in spring, summer, and early fall.

Might be a citrus trifoliata hybrid? Possibly citrus rootstock? Do you have any pictures of the flowers?
