Commenter mrtexas relays a description from Tom McClendon's uninspected book that CiTemple Edible has almost no trifoliate off-flavors. This is a secondhand claim with no identified specimen or test method.

Millet repeats the same quotation from Tom McClendon's book about CiTemple Edible as the Houzz discussion. This is a relayed, uninspected description, not independent confirmation; another participant asks whether cuttings are available but reports no plant trial.

Bouladou reprints in English eyeckr’s 2014 report listing a plant labeled CiTemple Edible among winter losses. The post gives severe-winter garden context and a garden record low of 5–6 degrees, but no plant-specific exposure, duration, protection, rootstock, or accession; it does not establish identity with Brown’s selection.
