I know it has been mentioned on various posts that Moro takes more years to flower than other citrus. I hope to gather more data (as this information is basically impossible to ascertain on the internet), to help decide whether I should replace my 2-year Moro, and maybe help others who are contemplating a Moro.

If you have a Moro, could you share where you are, how many years it took your Moro to flower, or if it still hasn't flowered, how many years you have had it. Plus any other experience on fruiting (e.g. size of crop relative to, say, a navel orange tree of same age), or words of encouragement :)

Background: my tree is in-ground, full-sun, trifoliate rootstock, planted 24 months ago (which was autumn in Auckland, New Zealand). Watered and fertilized regularly. It took off this spring/summer and grew like a teenager, putting out big growth spurts. It's now 60 inches tall, 40 inches wide, base of trunk more than 1 inch across. It has not flowered, while all my other citruses (lemon, lime, mandarin, orange) have. I have limited space in my property, and my goal is reach abundant fruit production ASAP. I did not know that Moro could take 5-7 years (as I read somewhere) to fruit when I planted it. If I knew, I'd probably have planted a red grapefruit instead. Now I wonder if I should cut my losses and not waste more time, or to stay put and hope for the eventual bounty.
