The US Sun Dragon is a modern sweet-orange-like hybrid developed by USDA-ARS researchers for improved tolerance to citrus greening (HLB). It carries a small proportion of Poncirus trifoliata in its parentage, contributing to greater resilience while maintaining good fruit quality suitable for juicing and fresh use. This variety represents the latest efforts in breeding disease-tolerant citrus for Florida and other affected regions.
At North Florida Citrus Nursery, our US Sun Dragon trees are prized for their disease resilience and strong performance, making them a forward-thinking choice for growers navigating today’s citrus challenges.
