Excerpt from Citrus Fruits, 1931-32
But no one of them will meet all conditions. It is largely a matter of soil, location and climatic conditions.
Rough lemon. Rough Lemon is the thriftiest and induces a vigorous growth of top. On account of its wide-spreading root system, it is the best stock for light sandy soils, such as are found on the lower East Coast and in the high rolling regions of Polk, Orange and Lake Counties to be quite immune from frosts, and to this type of soil the Rough Lemon stock is best suited.
Sour orange. A deep-rooted stock, adapted to the heavier soils such as good ?at woods land.
