Hello Again & Update on The Potomac Valley Hardy Citrus
Boca_joe:
hello again everyone! Millet thank you for the message to move over here, I just saw it :P
I saw our hardy mandarin today. It died to the ground over the winter, but strong shoots are already pushing up. I also have 5 rooted cuttings from last year and Dave Klemm has a few, one bloomed and has tiny fruit!
We hope to increase the population.
Boca Joe
Millet:
Joe, was your hardy Mandarin on its own roots, or grafted on another rootstock variety? - Millet
Boca_joe:
No it's a seed grown plant, so we're good.
Millet:
Do you know the variety of the mandarin, and also, how old was the tree when it got froze to the ground? I take it that the tree was not prot4ected in any manner against the winter cold. - Millet
Boca_joe:
Yes, I went through all of that last year in the forum. It is a US 852 seedling.
Planted out in spring 2007 as a small 10" seedling. No protection ever.
