Visit any nursery. Greenmart, Mimosa. They should have more selection.
Unfortunately, champa is now within the HLB quarantine zone and you can't leave with any citrus tree or even fruit.

I never visited them before but I assumed they would have a better selection because of their size.

Not even 'oro blanco'? Sometimes I think even places like home depot has it.

I guess it's up to the home grower to order from CCPP.ucr.edu and graft it.
