Narrative

This accession had exocortis which was removed by shoot tip grafting (STG 193-9). (EM Nauer, 1986)

A 'Diller' orange is described in [Hodgson, 1967], p 458, but it is spelled 'Diller' whereas this accession is spelled 'Dillar', so they may be different cultivars. (EM Nauer, ca 1986)

Only 3 fruit but appears to be a typical mid-season, seedy sweet orange. (EM Nauer, 02/08/1988)

A common mid-season sweet orange. Appears to be about average in all respects; may be slightly less seedy than most sweets. (EM Nauer, 01/20/1989)

According to Hodgson (1967), "This Arizona variety originated as a seedling of Florida origin in the orchard of Daniel Diller near Phoenix and was selected in 1910 and introduced about 1920. It soon became popular in the Salt River Valley, where the 1965 planting was said to be about 1,000 acres."

Hodgson (1967) describes 'Diller' as being "Small to medium, oblong to slightly ellipsoid; seeds comparably few. Color bright orange. Rind medium-thick and moderately pebbled.Flesh well-colored, juicy; flavor good. Early in maturity. Tree moderately vigorous; short, thick, upright-growing branchlets and leaves; productive under desert conditions. Said to be above average in cold tolerance." Additional information regarding performance in Arizona conditions is available from Greenfield Nursery.

Additional information and fantastic pictures are available from from the UC Riverside Citrus Variety Collection. A sanitized accession of 'Diller' from a different source is available as RRUT 544. (RR Krueger, 2017-05-11)
