i have one Brown select satsuma that is 10 - 13 years old it produces over 500 fruit each year. this year close to 700. I started w/ 2 trees and not knowing what i was doing i covered the tree and put a light under them the first few years when it froze.
Then i learned that a satsuma needs a good bit of cold weather to set fruit.
Now i dont cover at all and get great fruit. You must have bees to pollinate or you need to do it buy hand.
