I have aquired a few "hardy" citrus which I plan on growing in my unheated greenhouse (zone 8b PNW).
Meyer lemon, Changsha, Owari, Yuzu, Sudachi, Ten degree & Lemandarin. Any pointers or advise is most welcome.

Cheers, Barrie.

Barrie the Yuzu & Sudachi you should be able to plant in a protected part of your yard. The other are risky depending on your lows....

A recent read from a peice entitled "Field Evaluation of Cold Hardy Citrus in Coastal Georgia" considers 'Owari' satsuma, 'Changsha' mandarin, 'Mr Longevity' citrangequat and 'Nippon' orangequat to be the best in within the test plants they used for cold hardiness.
I guees there's always room for discrepancies depending on condtions and plant provenance.

Cheers, Barrie.
