Psidium guinense x: A potential hybrid guinense species. Species confirmed by Leslie Landrum, who believes it to be a guinense or possible hybrid of. Fruit was delicious. Very nice tart/sweet ratio with only a couple of seeds and lots of flesh! A really beautiful and low growing, but slow plant. Large showy flowers and absolutely something I want to grow a lot more of.
One of two C22 cuttings I started around Xmas rooted. I just used a tall low budget seedling propagation dome and peat plugs and Clonex gel.
Does growing citrus rootstock from cuttings rather than seed affect its vigor etc.? I've heard that air layering mango for example produces a very week plant.
Can I ask which trees tolerated the heat well? I live north of you but we are only a little cooler than you with summers over a hundred for almost 4 months reaching to 114 sometimes. My problem is I also need cold hardy varieties to make impart the winter.
Probably left on the tree too long? Satsumas get puffy the longer they hang as well.That makes sense. I'll check earlier next year.
