Citrus-Mandarin reticulata ‘Shasta Gold’

Citrus reticulata 'Shasta Gold' produces large, dark orange, sweet, juicy, seedless fruit with thin, easy-to-peel skin.

Citrus reticulata (syn. Citrus kinokuni) ‘Shasta Gold’ produces large, dark orange, sweet, juicy, seedless mandarins with thin, easy-to-peel skin. This hybrid involved three different cultivars: ‘Temple Tangor’, ‘Dancy’, and ‘Encore’. 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.
