HLB Tolerant

Citrus greening disease (HLB) has transformed Florida's citrus industry — but growers don't have to give up. Researchers at the University of Florida and elsewhere have been working for years to develop and identify varieties that perform well even in HLB-positive environments. The trees in this collection have demonstrated stronger tolerance to HLB, meaning they can continue producing quality fruit even where the disease is present. For Florida growers who want to invest in trees built for the long haul, this is the place to start.
