Here's some pics of my FD over the last several days. I managed to locate pictures of the same branch going back to late January. No flowers on my tree, I guess I'll have to hope for next year. Looks like Laaz's Poncirus are about a whole month ahead of those in New England.

Ivica, it looks like your FD has mine beat by 1.5-2 weeks.
At least my container FD is at about the same stage as the one Laaz has in ground (I overwintered mine outside in my cold frame, and brought it inside a month or so ago).

Tim, looking good! So going by your PT, it looks like spring is ~2.5 weeks later than last year.
Ivica, It looks like my FD is ~1.5 weeks behind yours... I guess that's the difference between a zone6b/7a and your zone 7b this year. It would be nice if New England would warm up in the spring sooner... There's a reason it's called New ENGLAND.
Wirtual, It looks like your FD is even ahead of mine, looking good!
Here's mine (5-2-2013)

I really like those FD/PT mighty thorns.
Thorns/spindles of other citrus do not counts here. _________________
