Narrative
Apparently, this was originally thought to be a selection of Ponderosa lemon, as evidenced by the cultivar name. However: "Not a true ponderosa lemon. Our CRC #294 ponderosa - from a total of fifty (50) seeds - all germinated singles. Yuma Mesa ponderosa lemon does germinate some multiples." (JA Brusca, ca 1966). "Foliage and fruit appear identical to CRC 1462, Cuban Shaddock." (EM Nauer, ca 1980s?) "This is a hybrid of unknown origin. It is quite different from Ponderosa lemon but we believe that it is the same as Cuban Shaddock...it produces vigorous, uniform seedlings which are easy to bud. It is tolerant to tristeza and Phytophthora parasitica root rot, but susceptible to Phytophthora gummosis and citrus nematode. In 4 rootstock trials planted in 1977 at Lindcove it produced vigorous trees that were noticeably precocious and among the highest yielding in these trials. However solids, acids, and juice content are considerably below those on trifoliate hybrid rootstocks and generally similar to those of trees on rough lemon. It suckers rather badly and several trees declined or died of unknown causes, particularly in areas with poor soil drainage. We recommend it for use with lemons on well drained soils."
