I grew a lot of citrus trees from seed 🌱. I have a Meyer lemon 🍋 tree which is still loaded with fruit 🍋🟩 which tastes very good. Meyer lemon 🍋 being a hybrid between a lemon tree 🌳 and an orange 🍊 tree. The Meyer lemon is sweeter than a normal lemon 🍋 tree. May the Lord bless,protect and keep you from Germany 🇩🇪.
I have purchased all 5 of my citrus from jo nina farms. I have a frost owari satsuma, New Zealand lemonade, cara cara naval, bream taracco blood orange and a meyer lemon. I absolutely recommend buying from them; all of my trees are healthy and bloomed within the first season of purchase.
Hi Travis, This is who I purchased my Finger Lime tree from several years ago, its' potted and has to be brought in during the late fall thru mid spring. The Finger Limes are quite refreshing, small fruit. Blessings.
I have the Frost Mandarin trees that can take an hour or two of below freezing temps down to 28F. I live in hurricane alley so I keep mine in pots which also allows me to over-winter them in the greenhouse. I also have the Hamlin juicing orange trees and ruby red grapefruits trees which all do well in zone 8. If you want citrus trees that can tolerate freezing temps constantly they have trifoliate oranges that are good down to -10F. Unfortunately trifoliate oranges are very seedy and not very meaty and typically only used for marmalades, cleaning products, etc. Trifoliate oranges are typically used as rootstocks for many popular citrus trees so they can tolerate cooler temps. I bought trifoliate citrus seeds online and grew my own, but you can find them already grown on sites like Etsy, etc.
What a wonderful lady. I enjoy the field trips Travis. My grandmother was in a care facility late in life and they had a fairly large lemon tree (with fruit!!) in the foyer there that fascinated me. I get a little jealous of the weather y'all have in the winter but then I remember July and August 🤣.
Interesting field trip Travis! I've been considering adding some dwarf stock lemon and Satsuma oranges to our yard. Now I know where to shop - I prefer local (GA) as the plants are more acclimated for this area and I like to support small growers and farms as well.... Plus being retired law enforcement myself, we like to support the "community"
Thanks for taking us on a field trip! I ordered a few trees from JoNina last spring and they are doing really well, the Frost variety is doing especially well.
Fascinating! Thank you for this field-trip video. Look forward to the next video that profiles specific varieties! Best wishes from Kate in Olympia, WA - 12/6/2022.
I purchased two of their trees last year. I have a miho wase mandarin and I purchased a Robertson orange which I had shipped to my mom in Missouri. I plan on purchasing their UGA varieties next.
Thanks for another wonderfully informative video and to Lindy for her time. It's got me now looking for container friendly varieties for down here in 9b.
I've been growing citrus in the ground here in Oklahoma for years. I protect them with C9 lights and frost cloth. Get 50#s of meyer lemons every December
I have a couple of Satsumas I ordered from there 2 years ago. St Ann and Frost Owari. I had the best large juicy Mandarins back in October from these trees. The peel just falls off when you open them and they were so juicy in segments like clementines and no seeds. They are larger more like the size of an orange and seedless. I am in McDonough, just south of Atlanta. Delicious! Plan to order a lemon and maybe a lime.
Really enjoyed this field trip Travis! We had citrus varieties when we lived on the coast, but I haven't attempted any here in upstate Bama. Just might have to give that Yuzu lemon a try! If they thrive on neglect, I can grow them!
Great video Travis! I've gotten so far behind in my garden and watching your videos. I'll have to binge watch back to August. (Yeah it's been that long) I was fortunate enough to find Satsuma and Meyer lemon trees at our local feed and garden store. I had met a master gardener the day I bought the trees and I had been admiring her garden for years not knowing who she was at the time. I hope I can catch up on videos i time for getting spring garden plots ready.
I bought my shiranui mandarins from fast growing trees imagine my surprise when I saw the tag for Georgia grown citrus 😂 I highly recommend just buying straight from GGC you'd get your two trees for the price I got for 1 from the other guys. But at least now I know where to go for all my future citrus needs. The trees came in excellent condition with a couple of fruits I had to clip off so a very promising future for my little trees.
My citrus tree is in zone 7a. I protect it with a frost tent, wrap incandescent Christmas tree lights around it and surround it with water containers. So far, so good.
Nice trip! Hopefully you have better luck than us here in FL. The pest and disease destroyed our citrus industry. But I still love hiking the woods and finding wild citrus that fights the pest and disease
Great video Travis, I like you as an interviewer you did a real nice job. If you have another opportunity to do another video like this I would say do it. I would for sure want to watch it. I am very interested in this idea and I did listen up when I heard about the lady in Minnesota with the tree in the sun porch. Thank you so much Have a great day!
Yuzu is a lemon with many big seeds which I grow now from seed in our cellar. You can eat the Yuzu lemon 🍋 and the rind, it tastes really good but I had only 5 Yuzu lemons 🍋 on my tree 🌳. Yuzu is a lemon who comes from Japan 🇯🇵. I have some problems growing a Yuzu lemon tree from cuttings but I got a leaf with good developed roots but still can’t see the plant 🌱 emerging. After my knowledge Yuzu can grow outside if the temperature remains above -9 degrees Celsius . I could grow Yuzu in our garden if temperatures don’t fall below 12 degrees Fahrenheit.
Got few silverhill, brown select, LA early Satsuma during the sale in late spring for $8 each, lucky I'm only 10 mins away. This is there last weekend for the clip and sip to try out the tasty citrus 🍊.
Well she certainly has a nice selection, too bad she can’t ship to Florida lol. One thing I know if the tropical fruit trees I’ve learned is to prune them to a manageable size. The one advantage is less fungicides plus can’t really spray the top of some of those 30 foot trees and can’t even get to the fruit to easily. I’d like to try to keep them around 15 feet. Maybe if I ever come through that way on the right day would love to pick up one of those dwarf lemons. I like a little field trip videos , It’s nice to see what other people are doing i.
No psyllids and citrus greening in the frozen north? As a Florida boy, I'm surprised you can get away with in-ground citrus in Georgia, and curious if the bugs causing HLB are a problem in Georgia?
@@LazyDogFarm I'm sure the cold weather limits how far north the psyllids can migrate, and thus limits the spread of the disease. If you CAN grow citrus in the Georgia cold and that also keeps the bugs away, then that's a very good thing!
When Lindy says they would wait to ship trees to colder climates until it is safe to do so, (15:15 of the video) that is completely untrue. I ordered 4 trees after watching this video in mid December and they were immediately shipped out. I live in Utah, and by the time they arrived, all 4 were frozen and died. They will not refund your money because there is a box you check at checkout that says they aren't responsible for weather related damage. I never would have ordered had I known they wouldn't wait until they were safe to ship. All the other tree suppliers I have orders with won't be shipping for a few months. I'm out $180 for 4 sticks... Not very impressed with the service. Buyer Beware :(
I live in central ga don’t believe the “if it’s on a rootstock it can survive” they pretty much have to have their on green house I’ve already had mine have severe freeze damage from last month and I frost protected them
Maaaan. Why you do this!! ?Now im influenced and here I go buying that dang yuzu lemon. I planted 3 lemon trees last year. They all died because of the cold weather we got down here .
Not trying to be disrespectful and I watched the 2nd video first so I didn't know she used to be in law enforcement so that might have something to do with it but to me Everytime Travis would reach in her direction she would jerk out the way. Supper froggy like. Is that a thing or am I just noticing something that ain't there
This is so awesome. This lady knows her stuff
Great field trip Lazy Dog Farms!
Glad you enjoyed it Victor!
Always enjoy your work! Thanks
I purchased a few trees from Lindy. She’s very helpful and provides excellent service.
Wonderful!
This was enlightening, Travis. Thank you for this video.

Good video I watched a guy he put old style Christmas lights on his citrus trees and covered them to protect them from cold weather
Well Travis, isn’t that a very delightful hostess she was in that heavenly candy store of a nursery.🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳
She is very nice. It was a pleasure spending time with her and learning about all the citrus world.

We grow Meyer lemons and Satsuma in containers in a high tunnel. 2nd year and got fruit off both trees this year. Zone 8b N.C.-S.C. border.

I promise it's a good one!
I've been growing citrus in the ground here in Oklahoma for years. I protect them with C9 lights and frost cloth. Get 50#s of meyer lemons every December
Have you found the C9 lights work better than the mini lights or did you start out with the C9s?
Tell me more, we just moved outside of Tulsa area and I am missing my citrus. Not sure I want to do pots but will if that is the only way.
I have a couple of Satsumas I ordered from there 2 years ago. St Ann and Frost Owari. I had the best large juicy Mandarins back in October from these trees. The peel just falls off when you open them and they were so juicy in segments like clementines and no seeds. They are larger more like the size of an orange and seedless. I am in McDonough, just south of Atlanta. Delicious! Plan to order a lemon and maybe a lime.
Those satsumas are amazing. I took a big bag home and have been enjoying them all week!
Really enjoyed this field trip Travis! We had citrus varieties when we lived on the coast, but I haven't attempted any here in upstate Bama. Just might have to give that Yuzu lemon a try! If they thrive on neglect, I can grow them!
Same here. I'm a big fan of trees that don't require much love.
Citrus trees also thrive on semi acidic soil I usually give the trees some cotton gin compost every spring and they absolutely love it
I grew a Meyer lemon as a houseplant. It did produce a lemon, but it would not ripen until I gave it a cold chill period.
At my place in Pensacola I have a 15 foot tall Mineola Tangelo that is loaded. Also have a Mandarin that is only 5 feet but doing well.
Darn, we are here in N Fl so we can’t take advantage but glad to have the information shared!😊
Yeah she can't ship to Florida, but you could always take a road trip and bring them back with you. 😉
Wish you could ship to Texas!
Awesome field trip and I'm so sad she can't ship to Texas....
Super educational & informative!
Travis, excellent video !
Thanks Jerry!

Thank you for the heads up!!
Thank you Travis. Nice video. Been wanting a lemon tree. Great information.
Glad you enjoyed it Veronica!
Definitely going to score a yuzu lemon. Thanks for this vid!
You bet!
My citrus tree is in zone 7a. I protect it with a frost tent, wrap incandescent Christmas tree lights around it and surround it with water containers. So far, so good.
Nice!
Love this video content and love my citrus growing in the high tunnell
Nice trip! Hopefully you have better luck than us here in FL. The pest and disease destroyed our citrus industry. But I still love hiking the woods and finding wild citrus that fights the pest and disease

Bought a Yuzu and Palestinian immediately after watching. Excellent find sir. Ill likely attend both of her seminars too.
Nice! I'm gonna get a few trees myself probably early next year.
Interesting video, didn't think we are considered a citrus growing state here in Louisiana!! And I don't want to talk about football either🤦😖.. ✌🏻
Rough day for the Tigers. lol
@@LazyDogFarm glad we only had to play 4 quarters 🤣🤣. ✌🏻

She told me that she uses a fogger sprayer on hers, much like what the pecan growers around here use.
FYI most of the Orange juice, you buy in stores come from BRAZIL . Is This something you can find a market for at local UPSCALE restaurants ?
The juice that she sells at her clip n sip events blows the doors off any store bought orange juice. It's amazing stuff.

From what I've read it does occur in GA, though I think it doesn't really exist in most of the state.
Too much work. Even in NW Florida.
Its just a matter of time before there's a frost you aren't prepared for. Congrats to those that can make it work.

No discount code if we mention our name during ordering?
Not currently. Maybe we can setup something like that in future months.
Oh I wish they coult ship to Texas! :-(
Funny, just harvested our lemons and mixed up some limoncello.
Where is Part 2?
Part two coming tonight at 8:00pm EST.
I live in central ga don’t believe the “if it’s on a rootstock it can survive” they pretty much have to have their on green house I’ve already had mine have severe freeze damage from last month and I frost protected them
Maaaan. Why you do this!! ?Now im influenced and here I go buying that dang yuzu lemon. I planted 3 lemon trees last year. They all died because of the cold weather we got down here .
zone 6a? nah. great video
I hate trying go buy citrus trees in Texas. They always cost alot more and much harder to get
I guess I better bring my baby in the house
Best time to plant a tree is seven years ago.
Yep! Always!
Ask her if I can grow citrus in Southeast Ms.
Sure you can!
I had four...then the icestorm hit not power for 9 days...now i.have one..very crippled one...
Dang that stinks!
I live in Texas so I guess I’m out of luck ordering any citrus trees! 😡
Yeah. If you live close to a state line, you might could have one shipped to a friend in another state.
@@LazyDogFarm I barely have any friends in this state! LoL. Not too far from Louisiana but can’t ship there either if I heard correctly!
Another in. formative
Sorry fingers not working that well.
Congratulations the dogs made it look easy!!
Of course they don’t ship to Texas. Bureaucracy is irritating.
