About FA5

FA5, or Forner-Alcaide 5, is a citrus rootstock selected for commercial production and for its adaptability to a range of soil conditions. Its suitability should be considered alongside soil, irrigation water and the grafted variety: rootstock choice helps shape the tree’s future management.

FA5 or another variety?

FA5 should be chosen on the basis of your soil, your climate, the variety being grafted onto it and what you want from the crop. In the same category, Poncirus (-15 °C) and citrumelo (-12 °C) are other hardy rootstocks. To explore further, see our “Seed parents” category.
