Citrus-Citron medica ‘Etrog’

Citrus medica 'Etrog' forms fragrant lemon-like fruits used for the Jewish Feast of the Tabernacles (Sukkot).

Citrus medica ‘Etrog’ is a citron that forms fragrant, lemon-like fruits with thick peel that are used for the Jewish Feast of the Tabernacles (Sukkot). These are grafted plants so they are not Kosher. All of our citrus are grafted onto C-35 citrange, trifoliate orange, or other semi-dwarfing rootstock which confer good hardiness and production while reducing overall tree size.
