Cold Hardy Citrus / Re: Do you have a picture of a large prague citsuma plant?
« Last post by lajos93 on Today at 03:02:54 AM »Perplexed
It seems to be in a decent shape. I though it grows in a really ugly way but it looks just like a poncirus tree
Damn I really wanna plant a bunch of these and wait a decade to have my cold hardy citrus orchard lol

« Last post by Jeramyl on Today at 02:26:41 AM »Awesome job Simon! I purposefully didn’t graft on a male branch so my tree would have en extra year of growth without fruit set. It’s pushing a ton of new growth right now.
Looking at your fantastic photos though, makes me think I should graft a male branch on so it has all year to heal before next season. We still have “May Gray“ and “June gloom“ahead of us so I think I have at least 2 1/2 months for healing and growth before hot summer months.
My tree will definitely be ready to hold fruit next year and probably could’ve this year.
So many peoples dreams are about to start coming true with trees coming into production! It’s pretty amazing. Thank you for all your help as always, Simon.

« Last post by Epicatt2 on Today at 12:49:18 AM »For me they've been pretty vigorous compared to other plinias, I can go from seed to a full 1g size in about a year.
As for the self compatibility I haven't really known plinias to have an issue with it but I mostly know mangos and annonas so I maybe be mistaken.
Thanks for that info about speed of growth, Skhan.
It's helpful to know.
