Well, you can't sell stuff on GardenWeb, first off. Against the TOS. Also, you have to be VERY careful about purchasing citrus then moving them out of their area in California, as we are under a very, very serious quarantine. So, fotoboi needs to GIVE his citrus trees away only to folks in his general vicinity. Otherwise, he would putting himself and the recipients of his trees in some hot water with the CDFA. We are under quarantine not only for the Asian Citrus Psyllid, but now also for Citrus Greening.

Ok. Just been waiting for fotoboi913 to contact me. Cheers,gerry

He would have better luck putting them local on Craigslist. Strange how he ignored all your posts Gerry...

I live in Hawaii and im sure that I cannot import a tree. But most citrus grow beautifully here and I would love to get a couple seeds. Recognizing that it's illegal to sell propagules, we could work out a trade.

Has anyone had success growing this mandarin in Southern Cal, or is it too early to tell? I would love to get this growing in my backyard.

No one can legally ship to California.

Does anyone know where you can get a sumo tree ? I would love to grow one. Or if anyone has seeds ? I have bought a ton of the oranges and no seeds yet ! They are my favorite oranges

Great job on that graft. It looks really good. Keep us all updated on its progress. Cheers.

Little tougher in Arizona - they'll ship but it's fifty bucks (on top of purchasing the budwood).

GoodMorning from Greece ! I am an agronomist and i want to grow one Sumo Citrus tree because i have a passion with genus citrus . Do you know a way that i can order from usa some sumo seeds ?! Or if you have other suggestions i am here to listen us. Thank you !

Ca residents... just order budwoods from ccpp and you will have a tree in no time. I got a few trees now and other friends from gardenweb that I met outside.

and I just pruned back small branches.

Hi Tuan. Those look awesome. I grafted 6 in April and had no luck. Did i do something wrong? would you be interested in swapping a tree for one of my other trees? I am in West Hollywood. Please let me know. thank u.

Gerry, you can't swap trees if you're outside of your very small geographical area, due to the quarantines within the state of California. Just order budwood and graft your own as Tuan says, you'll have you own clean tree, then. Manolis, Dekopon/Shiranui seeds will not grow true to the cultivar, but will be some unknown hybrid. So, no worth getting seeds.

Thank u. But i live very close to Tuan.

Thank you very much for your fast answers ! I just made an account in CCPP and i wait to be ready to sign in and order !

I'm not seeing any of the names listed here on the CCPP Mandarin website. Would someone tell me what name they have it under? Thanks.

Last one on the Screenhouse list, Shiranui Mandarin.

I just picked up a Dekapon (right), and it’s parent trees, Ponkan (left) and Kiyomi (center) at a clearance sale for 5$ each!

Hey Niceguy, did that dekapon survive? it looked like it needed water bad. Anyone get any fruit from their trees yet? any pics?

Yes it’s doing good. No fruit this year. But the Ponkan has 2 nice looking fruit just turning color now. Look a lot like dekapon.

Just curious, where do u live? Asking because u said u were able to find these for purchase. Thanks.

Hello ! I obtained a few seeds from Sumo oranges I bought (unbelievable I must say ) . i actually have gotten them to start to germinate. Any information for planting would be helpful !

Hey theniceguy! Do you mind sharing where you bought the trees? We looked everywhere and ate quite a few sumo oranges, but still no luck. Thank you!

Hello, I live in SF Bay Area and would like to if there is any availability of Sumo Citrus plant or seeds. Pl. let me know.

Carla, I have two Dekopon trees and the mandarins were good,to very good, but not what I would categorize as "outstanding". I think Ponkan, one of the parents, is much better. Seedless Kishu probably the best of the loose-skinned mandarins, and Page mandarin x still #1 in my backyard.

If you want one of these trees contact me at sales@beachviewpalms.com

have a great day

Hi there

tried sending email to you but

your email address is invalid??

Hello , my email is calrner@aol.com .

I’m looking to buy these trees . my seedlings I transplanted didn’t make it. Will try again if I get seeds this year.

Hi Shelly,

Did you have any luck purchasing the trees? I can find them anywhere.

As the years go by, I find more seeds in the Sumos I purchase from the store. The fruit doesn’t seem as sweet as I remember.

Im looking for a sumo tree. Where would I find one? live in florida

Good luck. We are all looking for them 😞

Any recent Sumo / Dekopon availability in the San Diego area? Would love to grow a small bush with this fruit. Or Ponkan for that matter. TIA!

@sa gama, check Walter Andersen Nurseries in both San Diego and Poway for Ponkan. If you're up to grafting, you can can Shiranui budwood from UC Riverside Citrus Variety Collection Budwood folks. I personally think Ponkan (the mother tree of the Dekopon) is a better tasting fruit.

Briteleaf has them in Florida currently oos though

Someone puleeze tell me where I can get a dekopon or ponkan in SoCal.

Try calling Walter Andersen Nursery in Poway, CA to see if they still have Ponkan mandarin in stock. That's where I bought mine several years ago. Not sure if Dekopon (Shiranui) is available in CA, but you could always try to graft by requesting clean budwood from CCPM. Nature Hills did have Shiranui at one time, looks like they're out of stock. You can put your name on their wait list: https://www.naturehills.com/shiranui-mandarin

Trees Outlet have many sumo or Shiranui mandarin of different sizes ($65 to 350) and thousands of other citrus as well in Sacramento, Ca. 916 254 8789.
