Yup Harris citrus. It wasn't the easiest tree to get, I started the process about a month ago. |

Very nice looking plant! I wonder if dekopon fruit will ever be available here. I'm very curious to know what it tastes like! _________________ - Marc

Ryan's beautiful photo says also a lot about differences of 7b zone there and my 7b zone, huh. I'm a month behind. _________________

Until they lay their eggs & they become citrus eaters. They will eat the hell out of citrus leaves.

Yes they do!, they are pretty easy to spot though. I just move them. I believe these are coming from the more southern states. Laaz - maybe they ate your leaves and flew up here for me to enjoy! . We just warmed up in the last few weeks.
Ivica - I am only ahead because I have a greenhouse . They just came out in the last week or 2. I've had it in the 80F range in the greenhouse since late February. It gives them a nice early start |
