A bunch of us ordered from ccpp in May 2019 to save on postage cost. My 1 red finger lime bud wood stick had 11 buds on it and my cost was $9. Unsure what it would taste like since it is still alive but hasn't grown at all. I tried to graft part of it to the green finger lime I bought but that looks dead - difficult when both stems are triangular and I've still learning how to graft.
In my search for different colored Finger lime I asked everyone a lot of questions, ccpp is testing a yellow (available to beta testing growers) and a red variety (only available to select commercial growers) that should be available to the public in 2 years.
I also found some foreign sites willing to sell the seeds but I live in the CA Citrus quarantine zone so not sure any will pass customs to me.
Found an Australian Citrus Farm site with a lot of different Finger lime varieties but he wanted payment in AUD and would hit the US Customs wall again.
I've been germinating various tropical seeds for a while but get a major die off once I transplant them into bigger pots. If the green finger lime seedlings don't die this time, I may think about saving for the others. Does anyone have any suggestions how to keep them alive?

A bit expensive outside of California at 2.50 a bud (that would be $15 a scion) but they have Red finger lime.
