Going to be in Lafayette Feb 3rd. Anyone know a vendor or farm selling Louisiana grown citrus around that date? Satsumas, oranges, lemons, etc? Or will that be to late in the season?

Going to be too late after the freeze. We just stripped 4 Navel Orange trees, 3 Pink Grapefruit and 6 Satsuma trees.
The crop wasn’t as robust as usual. I think due to the drought. Still gave away a half of pickup truck full of fruit. The neighbors are happy. I’m happy.
Might go pick some more tomorrow if I have time.

Cane row in Broussard will have anything you want
Nevermind thought you wanted to buy trees

My lemon and grapefruit didn't produce at all due to the late freeze, but my satsuma did. With that said, the flavor was different this year. More... intense? Likewise, I think it was because of the drought. In the same way that grape vines make for better wine if they struggle a bit, I think my tree had to work harder than usual to develop the fruit it produced. It wasn't unpleasant or anything. Just different.

My 5 year old Myers lemon has a bunch of flowers on it now. I plan to cover it with a couple of old bed spreads and then plastic to keep it dry. I will also put a light under the tree to add a little more heat.
