Went down to 9. I’ll figure out what is damaged or not probably after a few days since we’re still below freezing for over 24 hours.

There is currently an ongoing hard freeze happening now and probably the weekend. I would like to hear any data of frost hardiness of any citrus varieties following the event. It's going to get doen to 10 degrees F here, so I'll record my data and not protect anything.

Trying to save some seeds as I can't plant them right now. Any suggestions on how to remove pulp from seed? Thanks.
Also any tips on saving citrus seeds would be helpful.

Eremolemon is actually a citrus glauca x grapefruit instead of a lemon.

Can’t wait to test out cold hardiness this winter. Comes from southern china so I have some hope.

« on: August 11, 2022, 05:13:35 PM »
Precocious trifoliate in my experience can be able to bloom 3 times a year, and right now I see another flower bud preparing to open probably next week. Not able to hold any fruit because of its size but still has viable pollen in spring, summer, and early fall.

Might be a citrus trifoliata hybrid? Possibly citrus rootstock? Do you have any pictures of the flowers?

Same thing happening to mine in GA. It is most likely the heat, previous summer it was fine but now it's beaten up from the abnormal heat of this summer.

Have always heard that this is the hardiest of Pouteria but never see any actual comment on the hardiness, hope someone could chime in?

Cold Hardy Citrus / Re: F2 Citrus glauca
« on: June 25, 2022, 05:24:46 PM »
Close up on the leaves, they are definitely Citrus glauca seeds germinated but of course they aren’t pure and are hybrids. Of course I don’t know the parent because it could be anything. Different hybrids show different growth forms and other characteristics .

Cold Hardy Citrus / Re: F2 Citrus glauca
« on: June 19, 2022, 06:30:30 PM »
They aren't pure glauca, they are open pollinated therefore is a F2 Citrus glauca.

Cold Hardy Citrus / Re: F2 Citrus glauca
« on: June 19, 2022, 12:34:19 PM »
No, its citrus glauca. Check out the leaves, they have some serration to them and I don't recall finger limes having serration on the leaves. And the leaves are thin not as broad as finger lime.

It's probably a hybrid if it keeps on putting out trifoliate leaves
