Yippee Junk4us !!!! but did you buy ? Mine arrives in late May .

Brian

Four Winds Growers sells the tree.

Brian - sorry, my post was published before I was done. I got it at Whole Foods. It has potential, I think it's still early in the season.

Denise - I picked up a four winds LxN last spring while searching for a Gold Nugget. Not many people have tasted this LxN yet.

Lol Junk4us. Keep eating keep eating I heard that they really taste great and are sweet . Lol. Nice looking box of fruit

Brian

Hi Junk4us, I read in some other post that you bought a leexnova. How is he doing?

Amy it's doing ok. it hasn't grown any over the summer. hoping it will wake up in the spring.

Brian lol. that was the store display. I am not crazy enough to buy that many citrus before I taste it and this early in the season. I was crazy enough to buy the tree before I knew anything about it though. mmmmm....

Brian did I read this correctly? Your LxN tree is arriving in May? what happen to the mantra? must not buy more citrus trees....?

I saw moros at the grocery store too. I will wait a few more weeks to try those. I am NOT buying a other citrus tree....

Oh I thought that this mantra is only applicable during 2017! For 2018, I follow Brian lead and pre order a lee x nova too!

I failed Junk4us failed failed failed lol come on May . Junk4us I don't know if you already own a Moro if you didn't and were here tonight to try this fruit we just ate it would be at the top of your must have tree's it was incredibly sweet and delicious .

Brian

Amy Lol! how many new citrus trees are we allowed in 2018 before we should start reciting the mantra? I do need a lemon tree...

Brian I tried moros before. It is not on my must have list. Must taste better off your tree. I seriously need to buy other fruit trees beside citrus.

I hear you Junk4us how about blueberries the super food . Amy Lisbon lemons are very nice but the tree's have thorns . Internet shopping is making this far to easy .

Brian

I love the taste of the moros I buy in the store. It's my favourite orange so far! I'm going to try to buy a Moro tree so I can grow them. The colour is very cool too. Not a typical citrus colour.

I'm kind of interested in all these new varieties they've been breeding.

However, if you look at most of the citrus breeding being done, 90% of it is with mandarins. That's because oranges are much more difficult to breed, with virtually all their seeds being nucellar (same exact genetics as the parent).

Brian - I have 4-5 blueberries, an avocado, a loquat, a jujube, a pomegranate, and an almond tree. The loquat and almond tree will go away in the future.

Dave - I am starting to prefer Cara cara over other oranges. I think if I didn't have so many choices, I will go for the blood oranges.

Parker - Mandarins are also easier to grow. I have a navel but I can't tell when it's ready. it's been sour.

I may have to go back and buy the rest of the super Novas. I got about 3-4 lbs and half are gone already. It's the new favorite in the house along with GN and Pixie.

But Parker, you can use pollen from an orange, right?
