I sourced my 'Shekwasha' (and Nasnaran) from JRozier around 15 years ago. He got his original start from Woodlanders as a seedling in the mid '90's. I can't find my pics of it but he has great pics of the fruit here:

I have this tree and have had it for many years. In fact it has survived the coldest temperatures thrown at it along side my citranges, citrumelos, yuzu and other wacky trifoliate hybrids. I even forgot to mention it on my 2014 survivors list because no one ever seemed to be interested in this variety. Recently for some reason Shiikuwasha/Shekwasha/Citrus Depressa or whatever you want to call it has seemed to gain popularity and people want to get it.

Thomasville fruit all gone.

SEEDS available for those varieties mentioned above but now including ICHANG LEMON.

7 Ginger lime seeds for $5 shipped US.



Described here at a taste testing at Gene Lesters:
"Ginger Lime: The name is pretty accurate –this guy is a lime with a gingery tasting peel.   Pretty darned good.  Most citrus leaves are not aromatic –kieffer lime leaves (aka lime leaves) are the notable exception—but ginger lime leaves are. They have a great gingery aroma.  We want to throw some ginger lime leaves into soups."

If you have any interest in hardy citrus here's your chance to actually try some fruit for yourself. I have some fruits of Thomasville citrangequats, Taiwanica sour orange aka Taiwanica lemon aka Nansho Daidai, yuzu, a very limited clem x tri x clem and maybe a couple of lemandarin available for sampling. I'm asking $12 for a small priority box for about 16 Thomasville fruit. Taiwanica fruit are larger and they won't fit into a small priority box so price will depend on amount ordered. Clem x tri x clem are very limited so I'm asking about $4 per fruit plus shipping.



*Also a small amount of Taiwanica, Pong Koa mandarin and a slightly earlier ripening variety of Thomasville budwood is available.

California Rare Fruit Growers magazines containing great information about all kinds of fruit you can think of and more. I have about 25 magazines plus 4 back up black and white copies from 2002 to 2010. Asking $25 plus actual media mail shipping. Mods let me know if post is not allowed and I will remove.

I'd be interested in one also if you propagate another.

I agree with Laaz. Other than being a good tasting mandarin it is not really different than Ponkan. It was maybe a couple degrees or so more hardy than satsuma. I had mine grafted high on trifoliate and it did well until we had a severe prolonged freeze. It grew straight up and did not want to bush out. I think Juanita's original tree survived because it was planted right up next to her house.
