Citrus General Discussion / Chislett late navel orange is delicious, Kinnow, Fairchild and Daisy
« on: February 17, 2024, 09:33:37 PM »
I have a 4 years in the ground Chislett navel orange. This is the second year it's set fruit and it's already very good. It's tastier than Washington and almost as good as Cara Cara.
It might be the best late navel variety according the UC research. Much later season than the popular Lane Late navel and less granulation problems. My experience is it's tastier and more productive than Frost Washington navel. Also it's juice won't turn bitter like Washington due to lower limonin! The only drawback like Cara Cara is that it's harder to peel.
Too bad some nursery bought the exclusive rights to it in the US, so CCPP can't offer it's budwood anymore. Does anyone know if these rights expire? If so, When?
Has anyone tried the patented Kinnow LS and Fairchild LS mandarin varieties? They were available from CCPP for a short time years ago. According to google patent search, their patents expire around 2030. I was lucky to get Daisy Seedless wood from CCPP before they sold the license. It is excellent and very low seeded.
