Nice group, how's the Page taste growing in Texas? What kind of color do you get out of your Bloods?

Have you ever grown Ugli Tangelo?

Phil, very impressive list. First, I fully agree with you on Kishu mandarin. I also grow Kishu. Kishu is good tasting, but it is such a hassle to peel, and the fruit is much to small to bother with. Second, I also agree concerning Xie Shan Mandarin. Xie Shan is a real winner, excellent, excellent,excellent. Another mandarin that is tops on my list for flavor is the BC-1, a really good mandarin. I am lucky to have it, as Lazz budded one for me several years ago. - Millet (1,029-)

Sanguinelli has been the best for flavor/color by Christmas. The fruit was flected with red but the juice was very red!

Sanguigno the acidless orange was nice for color but really too odd flavored. I've topworked that one to something else.

Page tastes nice, like a cross of orange and mandarin. It tends to have lots of small fruit but I juice it all so it doesn't matter much.

Mr. Texas,

If I happened by your window while you were going for your camera, I might have had to ask the Lord for forgiveness. That juice looks delicious!
