i planted the Brown select variety of satsumas and have never had a crop that wasn't very sweet. they seem to be a little smaller fruit than some of the other varieties. You can produce either maximum fruit yield or you can prune off half the satsumas after the tree sets fruit and get larger satsumas.
Proper amount of water makes a big difference in fruit size too.

thanks, I will look for that and it says it grows straight from seed which is great, that's the first Satsuma I saw that actually said it grows from the fruit seed
