Narrative
This is a historical European variety. More information and historical references are available by clicking the image below from Tintori et al (2002). The reference from Gallesio (1811) shown there additionally states: "The small citron of Saland#242; is a very fine fruit, sought after for the aroma of the outer and for thre delicacy of the inner skin. It originally appeared at Saland#242;, on the Lake of Garda, where its culture is very extensive. It is also cultivated at Nervi, at Pegi, and at Final, where it is called cedrino. It differs from the citron of Florence only in the leaf, which, in the latter, resembles that of the lemon, while that of Saland#242; hasa an entirely citron leaf; and in the form of the fruit, which is a little more ovate. Some pretend that this is inferior in taste and perfume to the citron of Florence." (RR Krueger, 09/02/2010)
