I would have posted this earlier if I knew this was being discussed here:
California braces for a deadly stalker of citrus - latimes.com

BTW, I received a letter from CDFA about a week ago informing me of revised regulations regarding propagation of nursery stock even though citrus isn't a species my inspectors have asked about in the past as I've told them all of my trees are for my own use. The letter indicated they understood me a nursery propagating citrus. Tony and Richard: did you get the same letter?
