Title: ID this Mystery Citrus fruit
Post by: sc4001992 on September 15, 2020, 07:27:57 PM

Thought it would be fun to show you my interesting fruit.
Guess what it is, if you're correct I will let you know.

It has 12 bulges, but it is one fruit. Will be interesting to see where the seeds will be (if any).

I think a citrange. I have a Morton citrange which often produces fruits a bit like this one.

Is it a Finger Lime crossed with a Buddha's Hand Citron that was grown inside a baseball glove ?

jaboticaba45, not a lime.

pagnr, that's a good one, it does look like that.

I hope it tastes ok when it ripens. These fruits will not be ready until Dec-Feb.

Here's what the mystery fruit looks like now.
I will wait until Jan-Feb to pick it. I wonder if there will be any flesh inside to eat.
