All is not lost. The flying dragon orange sprouting from roots of the tree you murdered!Show more

The three lobed leaf of this tree is a common sight at the base of some citrus grafts. It is used because it can take some seriously cold weather which is a good thing. Citrus trifoliata and poncirus trifoliata are other names for it. I have a few of them on my property. They are a rather nasty tasting orange with many uses. The important thing to remember is that the tree that died because you forgot to cover it isn’t a complete waste. Wait to see if some of it actually survived above the graft. If it did, just cut the dead part off and wait. You’ll be back to normal in a year or two. The only price you have to pay in that case is relentless guilt and shame. You’re the reason it now has hostile thorns. They’re a reminder to take care of it in the future. Seriously there are some big thorns on them. That is one reason birds make nests in them and they can also be used as animal control hedges.

When I do some budding on these plants I’ll post a link below this line.
