Description from The Citrus Industry Vol. 1 (1967):  

"This California nucellar seedling was derived about 1935 by H. S. Fawcett of the Citrus Research Center, Riverside, from an outstanding old Valencia tree in the J. C. Cutter orchard at Riverside. This seedling budline was released in 1957 and is currently popular. Cutter is exceptionally vigorous and thorny and somewhat slow to come into bearing."

Availability: Commercially available in California through the Citrus Clonal Protection Program.
