Wanted: Citrus reticulata 'Jiouyuezao'

[Mangifera08]

Hi, I would love to buy seeds or plants of the Citrus reticulata variety named Jiouyuezao.
The internet says it is long cultivated in China and hardy to about –13 °C (8,6 °F).
Thanks in advance

This chinese seller has some similiar hardy varieties from China. I asked for Jiouyuezao some years ago but back then they don`t had it. Maybe now?

They offer
Citrus reticulata (Tuanianiju)
Citrus reticulata (Bendizao)
Citrus reticulata (Xingjin)
Citrus reticulata (Zaojin)

Very Interesting, from what I found online Tuanianiju, Bendizao and Xingjin should be hardy until -12 °C (10,4° F).
How hardy is Zaojin?
I can not find any Citrus reticulata varieties on this chinese site. How did you write them? In chinese? Or do they understand english?
