Notes
'Sanbokan' 1 gallon (Citrus 'Sanbokan') is a citrus for the food garden. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun. Cooks grow it for its flavor, a blend of sweet orange and grapefruit. White flowers open in spring and summer.
Pairs well with Hass avocado, Hachiya persimmon, Purple sage, and Lemon grass.
