I was looking at the availability of a local wholesale nursery and saw they had listed a variety of satsuma called Noble. I've done a basic forum search and Google'd it to no avail.

I'm curious about it. Anyone have any information on it?

Ah, that could very well explain it, good insight. Odd that they'd call it a satsuma though.

The Japanese KUNENBO is also classified as a KING mandarin type/relative.
That could link Satsuma and King, if it came out of Japan ?
