I am really serious.
Only have one Orange tree, but it is / was grafted to Flying Dragon root
stock.
Had to listen to a lecture from the guy we bought it from as to how to take
care of it.
It's going on year three and we still are supposed to pluck the blossoms
every year.
It has the "checked for cancer" registration tag and all.
Big thing here in Florida because it is supposedly more freeze tolerant.
Now, what the root stock which lives underground has to do with freeze
tolerance for the tree that lives above ground is beyond me.
The root stock itself looks like a bramble with thorns.
( we had to be shown it in the nursery where we bought the tree )
Do a Google search for "flying dragon rootstock" with the quotes.
