Sorry for the bad news but good luck with finding a Kishu tree. I have checked every nursery in AZ for the past 3 years with no luck. About time this year to start my search again. I will let you know if I have any luck and please let me know if you find one as well. I currently have a Gold Nugget and a Tango. Kishu will be my last Mandarin if I can ever find it...

I know I saw a Kishu at Mesquite Valley here in Tucson about 3yrs ago, but I haven't seen one since then.

Gold Nugget is a winner, I plan on getting one of them too.

It looks like Kinnow is more popular in Phoenix, so I may have to make a trip to some of the nurseries up there.

You two might contact Reid (Reed?) at RSI Growers in west Phx. I did not find those varities in a search of his site but he enthusiastically takes custom orders. RSI Growers

Kishu is a good variety, completely seedless and flavorful. The fruit size is very small though, but they are effortless to peel, and that combined with the lack of seeds make them easy to snack on. Because they are a bit more cold hardy, mandarins are able to grow in some places where other citrus has difficulty.

I'm a big fan of Kishu. I once bought a 3lb bag at a farmer's market and ate the whole thing by the day.
