Talk:Citrus unshiu

message: I would just like to question that orange juice pictured (in the image comparing satsuma juice with orange juice) really doesn't look like orange juice at all, at least not any orange juice I have ever seen (in Australia). It is strangely white! Can anyone verify this picture?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.44.30.84 (talk) 02:58, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: Try reading this: Horticultural Varieties of Citrus, by Robert Willard Hodgson. It describes the different sorts of mandarins in some detail, and makes the distinction between reticulata and unshiu (and others too). -- Justinbb 05:03, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Chōzaburō Tanaka catagorized things commonly called mikans into lots of species: for instance, obenimikan is a tangerine (Citrus tangerina)http://www.citrusvariety.ucr.edu/citrus/dancy.html, the kimikan is Citrus flaviculpus, and the natsumikan is a hybrid of Citrus natsudaidai, etc.. The "mikan" redirect is probably therefore wrong; perhaps we should direct it to Japanese citrus. Walter Tennyson Swingle called the lot, and some things that aren't called mikans,  C. reticulata. When we get all the genetic data we'll know exactly where each of them was wrong. HLHJ (talk) 14:34, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

text: Yes, these articles should be combined, but not because The Plant List is reliable. The Plant List is an effort to collate taxonomic opinion, but it has many problems, some of which appear to be due to programming errors, where it has picked up information from a source such as tropicos.org, and then misinterpreted it. This has been discussed several times at WT:PLANTS, but fortunately those errors do not apply to this species name. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 13:42, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

message: In the UK, these are universally known as satsumas.  Are they known as mikans in the US?  If not, the article name should be changed.  Rojomoke (talk) 14:17, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know (I'm from the UK too), but whatever the case, it's unhelpful to have the first mention of the word "satsuma" being "One of the distinguishing features of the satsuma..." in the second para. It needs to be in the lead, so I'm adding it there. Loganberry (Talk) 02:15, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Satsuma is not the English-language name for the fruit; for example, this term is unknown in Australia and New Zealand and is in fact a well known shibboleth for determining a person or television program of British origin. Can anyone find a mention of the term in non-scripted American speech? 80.4.202.8 (talk) 01:16, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've never heard of satsuma being a British term; they're widely grown (and known as satsumas) in Florida, especially in the north, as they are a bit hardier to frost than other tangerines and mandarins. Unfortunately, I don't have a handy reference, although a quick search of "satsuma fruit" on gainesville.com turns up some good candidates for citation.75.178.93.195 (talk) 03:13, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Are they called by the Japanese name elsewhere? Or is "mandarin" more prevalent? I'll admit I'd never heard "satsuma" before a few years ago, but I didn't pay much attention, perhaps; to me, they were just "those loose skinned tangerines". I never heard "mikan" until I saw this article. (Note: I've eaten about two bushels of them in the last month, so I've a vested interest.) As far as non-scripted American speech, I guess all the boxes of them I've seen in the store that say "satsuma" kinda should count. --jpgordon::==( o ) 07:45, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  Satsuma is an American term isn't it? I don't see why it should be here when mikan is more accurate and less confusing for the rest of the world. --138.206.161.231 (talk) 09:23, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  As I understand it, the Japanese name is mikan or unshiu, the Chinese name is migan or Wenzhou migan, the English name as used in some parts of the UK and many parts of the US is "satsuma", but in many other places it's just called "mandarin". --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 10:11, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

I know this is completely original research and anecdotal, but I've just had one from lidl and it had seeds in.  The packet says satsumas, so what was the chance of getting one with seeds in? Novalia (talk) 00:25, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
