SOUR Orange. The stock that has been used most extensively in Florida upon which to 
bud nearly all kinds of Citrus trees is the Sour Orange. It is especially adapted for this purpose, 
making strong, vigorous growth, and is, perhaps, the best all-round stock that has yet been 
used. Frees budded on it attain large size and are capable of bearing enormous crops of fruit. 
ROUGH Lemon. Ill recent years the common Florida Rough Lemon has become very 
popular as a stock for Citrus trees. It is probably adapted to a larger number of radically 
different soil conditions than any other stock. It grows well on land that is extremely dry 
and also on land that is extremely wet. We recommend trees upon this stock for South 
Florida, West Indies, Mexico and other sections exempt from frost. It is a rank grower, 
and trees budded on it are generally heavy bearers. 
CITRUS Trifoliata. In the more northern orange-growing sections, where Jack Frost 
occasionally makes raids, it is necessary to take all possible precautions against his ravages. One 
way of doing this is to plant trees budded upon Citrus trifoliata stock. The Citrus trifoliata is 
entirely hardy as far north as Washington, D. C., and all varieties of Citrus, when budded upon 
it, will stand more cold than upon any other stock. All varieties budded on it come into bear¬ 
ing at an extremely early age, and the fruit ripens up one to three weeks earlier in the season 
than the same variety on other stocks. 
On account of its having been extensively used as a stock for trees grown in pots and tubs 
—for which it is particularly adapted—many people think that trees budded on it are very 
much dwarfed and slow of growth, but this is erroneous. In our test orchard, comprising 
some twenty odd varieties of Citrus—four trees of each, two on Sour and two on Citrus trifo¬ 
liata, planted alternately—it would be practically impossible for any one not familiar with the 
arrangement to pick out trees of some varieties on Citrus trifoliata from those on sour, while all 
of the trees on Citrus trifoliata have made good growth. 
As a hedge plant, its vigor, hardiness, resistant qualities and stout, sharp thorns make it 
especially valuable. It forms an impenetrable barrier to man and beast, and with proper care 
can be made rabbit-proof.
