AdamC - Sellers have the right to refuse to sell to anyone  Let me try to understand, he was selling something,  you asked him to bend his rule, he didn't and now you're running your mouth. Is this correct?  I recommend apologizing and moving on.

Try Simpsons, isons, agristarts, or liner source. Some may be far away but they also might deliver.

I had Sinton, but lost it due to a Phythophtora infestation. It is very rare in Europe and I only know of one nursery that sells it.
Maybe it's different in the USA.

Madison carries it in the US.

Citrus General Discussion / Re: Planning for Spring Grafting: What Should I Order?
« Last post by botanical pilot on April 23, 2024, 12:42:51 PM »
I went with Atwood because it is an early variety and holds well. My only other navel is Lane Late and I wanted to compare the two. I had originally planned on giving blood oranges another try, but then I noticed a healed Smiths Red bud graft from last year pushing growth.

- Mas I highly encourage grafting when you can get into it. Really opens doors to get more varieties and save some coin.

I would recommend eureka or lisbon lemons over meyer.  I would most likely not have a meyer lemon tree if I was able to grow standard lemon varieties in my climate.  Meyer lemons to me have an off taste.  Meyer is a highly productive tree if you like the fruit but I prefer other lemon varieties over meyer.

I agree. Meyer lemons are low quality and not worth growing. I would recommend Lisbon or Harvey

Citrus General Discussion / Re: Yuzu Fingerlime cross

Not to be rude at all but what’s the point of this cross? I use Yuzu strictly for the rind (and I have more superior options but that’s all I find it useful for). I would think zesting a yuzu finger lime would be pointless and the taste would be much lower in quality with ten million seeds inside
