C. T. Kennedy; from the notes of John R. Brown, M.D. · Fruit Gardener · April 1992
Printed p. 15. Kennedy reports Brown’s distinct ClemYuzu 2-2 and 3-3 seedlings and says 3-3 was then in Stewart Nagle’s possession. Brown’s description of Tingletonque as the same clone or one much like 3-3 is explicitly uncertain and does not establish identity.

Printed pp. 29–30. The article labels Clem-Yuz 3-3 “Ten-Degree Tangerine,” describes survival and subsequent flowering/fruiting after the 1983 and 1989 freezes, late ripening in Texas, and distribution by Altex Nursery and Edible Landscaping under that name. These are the article’s reports about 3-3, not proof of identity for later Ten Degree stock.

Printed pp. 48 and 50. This handout names Clem-Yuzu 3-3 as Ten Degree Tangerine and separately describes 2-2. In its account, 3-3 is late and orange with a smooth rind; 2-2 is earlier, larger, blotchy yellow, coarse and bumpy, and varies in quality. These are source-specific descriptions, not universal identifiers.

Page 1, post by eyeckr. He explicitly calls his tasted Ten Degree Tangerine “Clem yuz 3-3” and says his separate Clem yuz 2-2 had not yet fruited. The linked historical photo could not be retrieved, so no visual fruit claim is made.

One-page thread, replies #1–17. In reply #10 (May 26, 2018), eyeckr compares plants he labels 3-3 and 2-2: 3-3 was very juicy with a more tightly adhered rind and a kerosene/skunky flavor he disliked; he says he grafted over it years earlier. His 2-2 ripened earlier and tasted better to him once fully ripe. Reply #12 also calls 3-3 Ten Degree and says it ripens late. The thread gives no acquisition source or propagation chain for either plant; the fruit comparison is not a matched ripe-fruit trial.

Summary from transcript: The presenter identifies Ten Degree Tangerine as ClemYuzu 2-2 and distinguishes it from ClemYuzu 3-3, describing 3-3 as rounder, smoother and more acidic (20:59–21:21). These are the grower’s labels and comparison, not proof of clone identity or a propagation link.
