This is the same tree on US897 rootstock from seeds you sent me. In a 10 gallon pot Closer look. Pip You don't have to stay in Arizona. If you come to Cincinnati. you can have most of my remaining rootstock (US897 and C35). My wife and I are not in a financial position to be shipping trees. If any one else passes through Cincinnati and wishes to get my extra root stocks let me know and I' make arrangements to meet. Steve PS Citrus trees grow better in Cincinnati than Arizona.

Kelley,, have you been on a trip to Italy yet and check out the open markets there? You could come back with credible information. I might add one that produces year around. I run out out of proper rootstock for one. I am at limit with others citrus, like to give away a few. Btw,, photos on Houzz, you could “resize” before you insert a picture, I do, just to 860x600 pixels, I load pictures to my desktop first, not directly from my cell. Good to hear from you, nice collection you have btw, interesting what your collection looks like soon. my close neighbor is leaving for Italy this Friday, don’t have the nerf to ask her to bring back any seeds, I also has a niece living in Holland that flies to the Mediterranean all the time. Problem, seeds take to many years to produce.

Jan Four winds uses C35. Their trees maybe a little weaker coming out of their screened in growing enclosures than others' trees. Silica That doesn't supersize me. I am still evaluating the 3 trees' fruits. One in ground tree against 2 in containers is not fair though. I was very surprised at how good the Seville NZL fruits were even though they had a lot of green still.\ Jaydub I would think you are correct, however in ground trees may exhibit a greater difference than container grown fruits.

Dave I cut my buds off while still on the scion donor tree. For T-Budding I use a razor blade and I sterilize with 10% bleach to water. I use a tooth brush to scrub my finger tips and under the finger nails. I then use alcohol to further de-oil my fingers and nails. I used my finger nails to lift the bark. Cut my time from 15 minutes to 1 minute. Very Clean fingernails is the trick for me. Bob! There will be NO army of citrus trees here. I am just using up the last few root stock seedlings and giving some of them to friends. Thanks anyway for the vote of confidence Steve
