Description

Flying Dragon or citrus trifoliata,

grows 8-15ft but very rarely does it grow to 20ft high and 16-20 at its spread.  It is one of the most cold hearty orange trees in its family and has dense branches that curve downward.   It blooms white citrus scented star flowers in the spring with green fruit that follows and ripens into yellow that tastes very sour, therefore it is not used to eat raw, rather its used for making jams and jellies.  Fertilizing with the proper amounts helps this tree stay healthy, keeping away infestation and tolerating insect pests.  It has a hardiness of 5-9 so it can exist in most areas of the United States except for the extreme cold States.  It needs Full sun with partial shade.  It is shipped in a 1-gallon container.
