Citrus Fruits 
Citrus Fruits at Glen Saint Mary on Citrus Trifojiata Stock 
In Florida, Citrus Fruits lead all others 
in importance. Large acreages are grown 
along the Gulf Coast from eastern Florida 
into Texas. Groves are being increased; 
new and improved sorts are being intro¬ 
duced which are adapted to the climatic 
and other conditions of this area. Families 
may enjoy these fine fruits along with an 
abundance of other kinds. The distinctive 
healthfulness of Oranges and Grapefruit 
makes it necessary that a place be provided 
for them in all home orchards. Our Citrus 
varieties are the best known, and their 
superior qualities are established. Our trees 
are vigorous and are heavy producers of 
juicy, well-flavored fruits. 
Marsh Seedless Grapefruit 
ORANGES 
Hamlin. An excellent, extra-early sweet 
Orange of fine - quality; very juicy and 
delicious. 
Lue Gim Gong. Large, fine, heavy, very late, 
smooth fruit with few seeds, and of highest 
quality. Tree cold-resistant. 
Parson Brown. An old, fine, early variety of 
high quality and medium size. Cold- 
resistant. 
Pineapple. The favorite of all midseason 
Oranges. A heavy producer. Trees up¬ 
right, with large fruiting heads. 
SATSUMAS. We have three distinct va¬ 
rieties of this Mandarin type, extra-early, 
hardy Orange (Owari, Silverhill, Kawano 
Wase). Fruits are medium to large, orange 
to deep orange in color, sweet, and highly 
flavored. We consider it the most palatable 
of Citrus Fruits, and one of the very best 
market sorts. 
Satsuma Owari. Large, flattened; deep 
orange, with smooth rind, which parts 
freely from the pulp; seedless, or nearly so. 
Matures before any of the round Oranges. 
Trees vigorous and hardy. 
Satsuma Silverhill. Tree is an upright grower, 
apparently hardier than Owari. Fruit 
similar to the latter, holding on trees per¬ 
haps a little longer in good condition. 
Otherwise similar. 
Satsuma Kawano Wa^fe. Tree and fruit 
similar to Owari. Fruit two weeks earlier, 
ripening before coloring. Smooth, thin 
rind; very little “rag.” Well worth culti¬ 
vating. 
Temple. The very highest of Citrus-Fruit 
qualities are found in this peerless Orange. 
It is strictly a “fancy” fruit from every 
quality point. Fruits large; fine, deep 
orange skin, separating easily from the 
pulp; free from “rag”; juicy, delicious. 
Tree a vigorous grower, bearing freely 
when very young. Everywhere that the 
round Orange varieties can be grown, home 
orchards should have at least a few 
Temples. 
Tangerine (Dancy). A“kid-gIove” Orange of 
medium size, deep orange color, and rich, 
spicy flavor. Trees upright, dense, heavy 
bearing. 
Valencia. (Late.) Long the most famous late 
Orange in the Citrus industry. Tree a 
strong grower, a fine, early bearer, and 
perhaps the most profitable of the round 
Orange group. Fruit keeps well on trees 
until very late. Size medium; good color; 
finest quality. 
Washington Navel. A very large, midseason 
Orange of excellent quality, and a good 
bearer on C. trifoliata stock. It should be 
included in home orchards. 
GRAPEFRUIT 
Duncan. One of the very best for all uses, 
lacking nothing required for the table and 
for market. Of good quality; very juicy. 
Hardiest of all the Grapefruits. Season 
December to May. 
Foster. Flesh purplish pink. Very early and 
of excellent quality. One of the best and 
most attractive. 
Marsh Seedless. A practically seedless va¬ 
riety which can be held on the trees very 
late. Fine-quality fruit with smooth yellow 
skin. It bears heavy and regular crops. 
OTHER CITRUS FRUITS 
Meyer Lemon. Perhaps the hardiest of the 
Lemon varieties. An excellent bearer of 
large fruits of high acidity. Particularly 
valuable in central to north Florida and 
warmer Gulf Coast areas. 
Calamondin. A small Citrus Fruit inches 
in diameter, of orange-red color, somewhat 
flattened; 'skin thin, easily removed from 
the pulp; sections separated as in the 
Mandarin oranges, juice clear and strongly 
acid. Makes a pleasant drink. Very pro¬ 
ductive. Season November, December. 
Eustis Limequat. New, attractive, acid 
Citrus—a cross of a lime with Nagami 
kumquat. Tree is vigorous, producing 
quickly fine crops of acid fruits which make 
an excellent drink. Fruit oblong, somewhat 
larger than the Key lime; rind thin, grape¬ 
fruit color. Hardy farther north than 
limes and most lemon varieties. A very 
important addition to our list of Citrus 
Fruits, whether for market or home use. 
Glen Citrangedin. A hybrid between the 
Willits citrange and the calamondin. Very 
hardy; has withstood temperatures as low 
as 12 degrees F. without serious injury. 
Fruit small, resembles calamondin; excel¬ 
lent for making a drink which can scarcely 
be distinguished from limeade. It is, per¬ 
haps, the best of the truly hardy “ade” 
fruits that will serve as acceptable sub¬ 
stitutes for the lime or the lemon.
