  • Come along as we take a closer look at the ancient cold hardy ichang lemon, otherwise known as shangjaun or Hsiang yuan. This one definitely his a history as deep and rich as it’s flavor. With a cold tolerance around 10F and known to grow all the way in Portland Oregon, this is definitely and underrated tough citrus variety that can be grown in the Carolina’s no problem. Thanks for tuning in fellow citraholics 💪🍊

    Would you be willing to do a video on tips and tricks for helping keep citrus trees alive in zones that are pushing the limits? You are so knowledgeable on this subject, I and many others would greatly appreciate a video on how to help push the limits of citrus in zones that are cold. I have never found a video like that and it could be a real hit. Either way, thank you so much for your videos, they are a real blessing. Take care

    Do you have any citrus breeding projects in the works? Do you think you'll ever take over for Stan as he gets older?

      I really appreciate that brother!! 🙏 i do have some young seedling trees that are from I can tell new varieties it I do have a few breeding projects in the works but I will keep you posted as n any successes and maybe how I hand pollinate citrus crosses. I don’t think I could ever fill Stan’s shoes, those are some big shoes to fill, Stan is spunky and I keep telling him if he ever retires to the beach and sells the farm, to let me know. But Stan’s kids and grandkids all work and help him at the farm too. His granddaughter was helping pack up plants for shipping when I was there last weekend 💪

      @@piotrwojdelko1150 this one, the ichang is a little more late ripening. But all of the trifoliate hybrids like the citrandarins, citremons and citrumelo are very early. Early November through Christmas. You can even get them closer to Halloween but they get sweeter as it gets a little colder at night I would say. Mid November they taste great 💪🍊

    hi,
    it's a "super yuzu" not very well known.
    I grafted this one last year, I can't wait to see it bear fruit! here in Europe it is easy to find.

      No damage on them! Yuzu may be slightly more hardy than Ichang Lemon, which would make sense if it really is a Yuzu x Pomelo cross.
      Also no damage on Thomasville or Sinton citrangequats.
