  • Winter Citrus Brightens Cold Weather Gloom
    By Frieda’s Specialty Produce CEO Karen Caplan What better way to enliven the spirit during the winter months than with the bright colors, refreshing fragrance, and sweet taste of fresh citrus fruit. Not a lot of people associate citrus fruit with winter because it seems to be available year round, but, in fact, the winter months are when citrus fruits are at their sweetest. Florida produced 63% of the total U.S. citrus crop in 2012 with California coming in at 34%, and Texas and Arizona rounding out the last 3%. Florida is the largest grower of oranges at 70% of total U.S. production and grapefruit at 65%, while California is the largest producer of lemons at 92% and tangerines at 80%. Did you know that Americans consume more citrus per person than any other fruit? The bulk of this is attributable to orange juice, but the fresh citrus category is still among the top sellers in the industry. Our top selling citrus at Frieda’s include Oroblanco, Meyer lemons,blood oranges, A pomelo-grapefruit cross, the Oroblanco can brighten up a range of dishes. UGLI® (Uniq) fruit, and kumquats. Most of our citrus come from California, but our UGLI® (Uniq) fruit are only grown in Jamaica. We also extend our Meyer lemon season by sourcing from New Zealand and our blood oranges by importing them from Australia and Italy. Meaning "white gold" in Spanish, the Oroblanco was developed in 1958 and is a cross between a white grapefruit and a pomelo, the giant Chinese citrus. The fruit has yellow skin, a thick rind, and is virtually seedless.

  • CITRUS BUDWOOD Annual Report 2017-2018
    CITRUS BUDWOOD Annual Report 2017-2018 Citrus Nurseries affected by Hurricane Irma, September 2017 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Our Vision The Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration will be diligent in providing high yielding, pathogen tested, quality budlines that will positively impact the productivity and prosperity of our citrus industry. Our Mission The Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration administers a program to assist growers and nurserymen in producing citrus nursery trees that are believed to be horticulturally true to varietal type, productive, and free from certain recognizable bud-transmissible diseases detrimental to fruit production and tree longevity. Annual Report 2018 July 1, 2017 – June 30, 2018 Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration Ben Rosson, Chief This is the 64th year of the Citrus Budwood Registration Program which began in Florida in 1953. Citrus budwood registration and certification programs are vital to having a healthy commercial citrus industry. Clean stock emerging from certification programs is the best way to avoid costly disease catastrophes in young plantings and their spread to older groves. Certification programs also restrict or prevent pathogens from quickly spreading within growing areas. Regulatory endeavors have better prospects of containing or eradicating new disease outbreaks if certification programs are in place to control germplasm movement. Budwood registration has the added benefit in allowing true-to-type budlines to be propagated. The selection of high quality cultivars for clonal propagation gives growers uniform plantings of high quality trees. The original mother stock selected for inclusion in the Florida budwood program is horticulturally evaluated for superior performance, either by researchers, growers or bureau staff.

Oficial, 46113 Moncada, Valencia, Spain. 1Centre de Coopération Internationale en Recherche Agronomique pour le Dévelopement (CIRAD), San Giuliano (Corse), F-20230, France. *Corresponding author: [email protected] Received: 31 October 2007; Accepted: 02 November 2007 Citrus is the main fruit tree crop in the world and therefore has a tremendous economical, social and cultural impact in our society. In recent years, our knowledge on plant reproductive biology has increased considerably mostly because of the work developed in model plants. However, the information generated in these species cannot always be applied to citrus, predominantly because citrus is a perennial tree crop that exhibits a very peculiar and unusual reproductive biology. Regulation of fruit growth and development in citrus is an intricate phenomenon depending upon many internal and external factors that may operate both sequentially and simultaneously. The elements and mechanisms whereby endogenous and environmental stimuli affect fruit growth are being interpreted and this knowledge may help to provide tools that allow optimizing production and fruit with enhanced nutritional value, the ultimate goal of the Citrus Industry. This article will review the progress that has taken place in the physiology of citrus fruiting during recent years and present the current status of major research topics in this area. Key words: abiotic stresses, abscission, color break, flowering, fruit set, ripening Fisiologia da frutificação em citrus.

  • Growing Citrus Indoors
    Growing Citrus Indoors Surprisingly easy to grow, several varieties of citrus can fill your indoor rooms with glossy green foliage, sweet-smelling flowers and tasty fruit. Choosing Plants Though many citrus are easily started from seed, it can take several years for plants to flower and fruit. Start with mature potted plants for best success. Choose dwarf citrus suitable for indoor growing - here are some great choices: Meyer Lemon The attractive foliage and fruit of Meyer lemon makes it a great indoor choice. Requires a sunny spot and consistent humidity. Variegated Pink Lemon Distinctive green and yellow variegated foliage. Lemons have pink flesh with a clear juice. Fuchsia colored new growth and flower buds. Buddha’s Hand Citron Fruit forms finger-like sections resembling a human hand. It is much esteemed for its delicate lemon fragrance in China and Japan. Fruit has virtually no pulp, but can be sliced and candied in syrup. Mexican Key Lime The longest known and most widely cultivated worldwide. A great variety for growing indoors, Key Lime produces genuine tropical flavour. Bearss Seedless Lime (Tahitian) This seedless selection is suited for growing indoors and boasts glossy green leaves with large fruit. Australian Finger Lime This somewhat thorny, tiny leafed relative of citrus produces fruit that is tart and juicy. Sometimes called "citrus caviar", fruit flavor is reminiscent of Mexican lime. 780-467-7557 greenlandgarden.com [email protected] Calamondin Orange The easiest citrus to grow indoors. Even in lower light conditions, plants will flower and produce attractive and aromatic oranges. Valencia Orange This popular summer-ripening variety is also a great choice for indoors.
