You didn’t have to go this hard on a documentary about citrus but you did, and for that I appreciate you
A fit of passion can make you do crazy things
@@anthroman7963 yeah. I want more videos like this
I can not believe how few people have seen this. Sooo much research and effort. My hats off to you dude.
Thanks man, really means a lot to see a comment like this. I have another video in the works
@@anthroman7963 looking forward to it
It will be glacial pace but it will get done. Been working 60 to 70 hours a week at my job so it's hard to find time. The research has mostly been done though. Comments like yours are super encouraging. Again I deeply appreciate it!
@@anthroman7963 Guess i didn't mention before but I'm a musician, if you ever need some royalty free music for a project I'd be happy to donate/contribute.
Their distracted by cat videos lol
I’m a citrus grower in Turkey. We only have lemon, mandarin, and orange growing in our region. I didn’t know there were so many other citrus species. I’m very excited to grow different varieties of citrus. This was a very informative and amazing video!
I hope we can see different citrus species here in near future!
You should look at some fruit and garden forums online! Maybe someone can gift you some seeds or cuttings? Hope you get whatever citrus you want!
3000 species and counting, we have an influx of species here in the EU for gardening and collecting, not in supermarkets though. I expect that the number of cultivated ones will rise from the usual mix of lemon mandarin and orange, already pomelos are pretty often to be found in supermarkets.
That sounds great. There a many nice hybrids too. I like that you consider new species for the market. Let me know if you succeded finding any. I love Yuzu myself. Different use than a lemon but so flavourful you can't even imagine
Thanks for going hard when you didn't need to. It's people like you who make the world a better place.
This is the best youtube video about citrus taxonomy I've ever seen.
A random fit of passion
My hobby in cocktails and bartending made me learn syrup making and it has also led me to citrus varieties and I finally found your amazing video. I never knew how far the citrus' journey has come. Thank you very much for the lesson!
No problem (: glad you enjoyed it! A citrus cocktail sounds amazing right now
This is an epic documentary of citrus that certainly has given me pause for thought. Well done!
I watched the whole thing!! Was very interesting. I became obsessed with citrus bc my gateway kumquat produced so much. I've now added meyer lemon, keffir lime, pomelo, calamondin & yuzu lol. All in pots and they produce pretty well! Thanks for sharing your hard work with us.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I'm a citrus fanatic. I love growing these trees from seed and I've watched this particular video of yours more times than I can remember because it focuses on evidence and takes the time to go through the evolutionary path of most citrus species. Thank you once more.
I hope you make more videos like this! I’ve always been curious about the taxonomy of various fruits and plants, thank you so much!
I’m fascinated by citrus. I have a finger lime, Mayer lemon, variegated pink lemon, key lime, navel orange and grapefruit, yuzu and a commercial variety of mandarin orange. I hope to add calamondin and kumquat soon which I lost during a hard freeze several years ago. Citrus adds so much zing to foods. I also have apricot, pomegranate, fig, avacado, and persimmon trees. There used to be just something about growing fruit trees that is very appealing to me. Thank you so much for this video.
This was so good. My teen son and I really enjoyed it! Your voice and knowledge level are wonderful
Fantastic and fascinating. This is exactly how I wanted my Google search answered.
You deserve more mate, best wishes to you and hope to see you in the future!
I am trained in evolutionary biology, and I have often wondered where modern varieties of citrus fruits come from without looking much further than India, China, and Indonesia. I am now aware of much that I did not know. I appreciate the repitition of names and radiations in your video as these things tend to lock in information for me.
I would love a video on any evidence, biographical or physical ( as in coprolites, eg. ) on who ate these fruits before humans. For example, could elephants, mastodons, and early great apes have influenced adaptations of these fruits as well as climate change? One can always speculate, but has anyone done any peer reviewed studies on this? Just curious. And thank you.

This was better than I expected. Although I was more interested in the history of the lemon, this showed possible origins of the citrus.
Fascinating..incredible depth.... I live in Australia and have always wondered how we ended up with Citrus here... Thank you
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with such a serene and beautiful manner.
I was absolutely captivated and blown away at the same time.
AMAZING.
Really an amazing piece of work! And how unfortunate that there’s no videos after this 😢 all the best and thanks!
This video was so fascinating, and so well-researched, thanks for making it. I really hope you make more videos like this in the future, I find the evolution of different fruits so interesting.
There will be more but I cannot guarentee when!
Superb job! His calming, pleasant and gentle way of speaking makes this documentary even more worthwhile watching.
Yes at some point there will be more, life just gets in the way for now haha
Really good job my friend. I had this tree in my backyard for years that had these terrifying giant thorns. This is in the state of Virginia. It took me years to figure out that it was some kind of obscure lime. It didn't produce all that much fruit and they were super sour and bitter, but definitely edible.
Very very very nice greatings from a citrus maniac from thenetherlands
A zesty and informative video - much appreciated.
Gotta have the zest
What a underrated channel, very informative and interesting video. this is amazing, great work!
Thank you I really appreciate it! I really wish I could produce content faster. I've been working out of town and 60 plus hours a week for my job. I am working on other videos though (:
Had to calm my mind after a day of schooling grandtwins and this came up. This was an amazing video. Who new citrus was so deep! Thanks.
This is absolutely what I was searching for. Thank you very much for your great work!!!
most excellent excellent narrator , was never boring well done.
This is so interesting and very well done! Even with all this information it makes me want to know even more. I really hope you do the citrus hybrids doc.
I love watching this video I may have watch it a hundred times. Looking forward to an update date. You can look into the natural history of Barbados 1760 you may find something there you can use
This is the best documentary that I heard ..... congratulations from srilanka 🎉
I love this!! I love citrus even more now!
Citrus is the best, particularly kumquat!! Love Kumquat, don't have to peel it, just pop into your mouth and enjoy.
Great documentary.
I thought I knew most of the citrus history, but though knowing more than average I knew quite nothing.
So now I know a lot more, TY for it.
I’m fascinated by the knowledge you get from watching this video. Thank you so very much. God bless you.😊
Well done! We have "grapefruit" here in New Zealand which are unlike normal grapefruit. They are also known as "Poorman's Orange" or " Goldfruit". I watched your documentary to see if there was any mention of it, as it's history is not well understood. I now get that it would be impossible to cover ALL varieties of citrus around the world!
This is just what I needed. I've been really interested in Citrus fruits for the past few weeks.
Love this video. You explained everything from scratch but also took a deep dive into different aspects. Thank you :)
I am happy you enjoyed it! As someone with Adhd I try to make things easier to digest
Fantastic stuff. Very thorough research you’ve conducted. It is easy to absorb information from your videos. Thank you
Thank you very much ❤ greetings from Argentina! 🇦🇷
Excellent info and well assembled. Thank you!
I just planted 4 citrus in a micro climate outside my home here in Chesapeake, VA. On the border of USDA frost zones 7B/ 8A
I am currently on the hunt for more cold hardy types to try out in-ground
You really answered a lot of my questions! This is so useful and what a great video it is!
This video is nothing short of fantastic: so much work in research, photography and samples make it both enjoyable and educational. Thank you so much for this presentation and the education. I have ADD but you maintained my complete attention from the beginning until the very end. Cheers, mate. Bravo!!
Thanks for the video bro! Pure awesomeness!
Great information .
I hope you will continue making videos. I loved this one!
Your delivery of the research that you've done is truly delightful, well spoken, and concise. This was a wonderful video please keep creating content like this. Your channel will blow up in no time 😀👍
This was so well put together! Thanks so much! I would love to see, in history, the first uses of citrus as well.
Thank you for the effort you put into the making of this documentary.
thank you for this great research and detailed Video
That was absolutely fantastic! I'd be really interested to hear more about the complexities and difficulties of citrus hybridisation. Can't believe how much effort went into this, love your work.
appreciated of your huge effort doing this research and documentary the video. this is awesome !!
Thanks! Yes it did take a lot of effort, I wanna do many more videos similar to this
Thank you, very rich and enlarging my citrus horizon.
Thank you! Well produced and excellent information. I've not seen or read of all this information in one spot and so clearly described.
BEST Video on this channel! Thank you so much! For such long time I was surching for this information. Very compact. Big thanks
Clarity. And a beautiful presentation.
Well done! I have red just recently some similar papers about Cornus, Sorbus and Quercus genera. This is an interesting topic indeed.
Thanks! I would love to do a documentary similar to this on other plant species as well. I wish I had more free time for sure
Bro dropped a video 7 years ago, 3 years ago, refused to elaborate, left
Excellent documentary. I love citrus, I want to try them all before I die.
Do it!!!!
Great video, thank you!
Thank you! :)
Amazing! Really enjoyed the evolution of citrus! Keep doing this marvellous job dude, thank you very much.
This was a great documentary, very well done! I thoroughly enjoyed learning from this.
I'm blown away by the lack of likes. This should go viral.
awesome video you did a fantastic job with the vibe through your editing, music, and visuals. congratulations on your future success
Amazing video. Thank you so much for the effort
This documentary is very, very good. Thank you!
this is too cooooollllll!! i like to call this time citrus szn but ur documentary takes it to a whole other level!

Great documentary of my favorite fruit. Learn a lot of their history from this video. Thanks for the hard work.
Really fascinating! I look forward to more.
This deserves a lot more views keep up the good work.
Much appreciated!
Fascinating theme and well done documentary! I can’t wait to watch the next ones!!
Thanks appreciate! One is definitely in the works (:
really enjoyed this docu! well done mate
I love videos like this, going over the history of things people don't necessarily think about but are super interesting!!! I really hope you make more videos in the future
My brain will get there and when it does, it will be relentless. Then prolly burn out but it will always be back.
wow that was the best 50 minutes spent in the last few years i feel so well informed that i feel like i owe you a thank you very much.
Thanks so much for your wonderful well researched video.
Bravo buddy you are superbly well produced and enlighteningly fresh!!!!!!*
That is an impressive piece of work.
truly great video, one I will absolutely have to watch again (with an open notebook), Thank You and stay the course Anthro Man!!...
You know you've achieved documentary greatness when you can finally justify the use of "furthermore". Well done.
Thank you for this work of information.
This is a great explanation wow
Ready for part 2!!
wow. that was great work. thank you.
I find this video as very informative (and a bit psychedelic). Good work!
Thank you for this most informative video. Bravo👍
Very thorough and informative!
Great work Mr. Thanks.
Im so sorry that this video isnt getting the views it deserves☹️ extremely underrated
Thank you for this video!!
Monumental!!! Thank you Waiting for the book..
Amazing video my dude!
Excellent video! Knew a bit about this and is indeed an interesting history. 'The land where Lemons grow' is an excellent book of a similar fascinating topic but based around citrus history in Europe
While I new some of this. Since I love citrus and have been interested in how they came to be. I did not know just how involved it all is. Thank you for all the information you gathered together!!
It was my pleasure, I am super excited by your comment! I would love to produce more videos. Would you mind if I asked you a few questions such as should stick towards agriculture or branch more into botany
you did a wonderful job with this video and research! I love learning about plants that few people know the history of. I am surprised that how few people view this... for a fruit that everyone enjoys, it's history it's not well known. I did not know there was no Citrus native to the Americas. very interesting and informative thank you again... I was led here in my search for the origin of limes and got so much more!
Great video. Really good quality
Well done, incredible job!
Thank you good sir
I would subscribe if you post more. This is amazing!
thanks for this! almost all culinary discourse i've seen identifies only 3-5 ancestral species due to oversimplification & outdated science
Fantastic information and research! I'm at the point in my life where I want to learn about where all our food comes from and create my own sustainability. Thank you!
Wonderful narrator. Good voice, without an unintelligible accent. Pleasant to listen to.
Great documentary. Such an interesting story of citrus evolution.
Thank you!
