Notice

Colin Mills, compiler of the Hortus Camdenensis, died in late November 2012 after a short illness. As he always considered the Hortus his legacy, it is his family's intention to keep the site running in perpetuity. It will not, however, be updated in the near future.

History at Camden Park

Listed in all published catalogues as ‘Ditto ditto (good)’ [Orange Tribe no.8/1843]. This follows ‘Seedling Orange (fine)’ implying that this is another seedling orange.
