Record buck farms
franklazar26:
Recently, I have finally found a vendor for citrus up in the north woods of Wisconsin! To my luck, it was a buy one get one. So you know how that went... my question is, are all of record buck farms citrus rooted? I can see how the Meyer and calamondin are, but can’t imagine grapefruit and kumquats being sold as rooted plants. There’s no graft junction to be seen. Can’t seem to find any info on them!
brian:
I recognize those tags. I am not sure who the grower/wholesaler is but I see these same trees at home depot, walmart, lowes and such near me. They have tags that say mycitrustree.com, right? And that site doesnt have any info about grower or rootstock.
Yes, the limes lemons and calomondins look like rooted cuttings. I too assume a grapefruit must be grafted. Maybe if it is budded early the graft line is hard to see? i dunno
Vlad:
I have had really bad luck with their trees.I will no longer buy them.

Record Buck is a Florida grower and as such must place the rootstock on the tag, if there is one. The small pots they sell are cutting grown, including grapefruit.

So far, I’ve had great luck with their trees! I enjoy them. But yes, I would think they’d have to be grafted, however I can’t find anything resembling a junction. That’s very odd to have kumquats and grapefruits rooted. Very interesting anyways. It states that I can keep them in this small pot for their life. I checked all tags, no rootstock listed.
