I purchased a Satsuma "frost owari" tree on January 17, 2015 at an Urban Harvest fruit tree sale at Rice University. That one died within a year, and I bought two others: one called "Owari" (Citrus Reticulata Owari) and one called "Silverhill"(Citrus Reticulata Blanco). The latter has also been referred to as Citrus Unshiu, and is thought to be identical to "frost owari". It is planted in the west yard in a tree bed by the back yard fence.
