Citrus General Discussion / Are these Sumo tangerines
« on: December 07, 2021, 09:51:10 PM »
We went to a resort in Indio, Ca, last weekend.  They grow lots of citrus varieties there and all full of fruits.   All trees are very big and I would say are all 10+ years old.  Medium thick skin, easy peel, with almost seedless.

Sprayed with 0.25% LB urea  in late January following Millet's advice causes my washington navel to produce the most bloom ever.  I have this tree since 1995 and it has never given this many flowers before.  Thank you Millet.
