Citrus Buy, Sell, & Trade / Variegated minneola tangelo seeds
« on: April 08, 2024, 08:18:42 AM »
Does anyone have variegated minneola tangelo seeds to share (buy) and ship them to Europe. I would like to experiment a little and see if they will grow all albino or there will be some green seedlings as well.

I have just read about new citrus varieties (new to me anyway) - Silkroad Lemon and Onix Blood orange. Anyone have them?

What is honey crisp kumquat?
Is it a knock off of crispy honey kumquat?


Both of these search terms gets you the same results, don't blame me, blame the people who call it different names

Citrus General Discussion / Honey crisp kumquat
« on: February 20, 2024, 03:32:48 PM »
Hello to all forum members, I'm in search of Honey crisp kumquat (preferably seeds) because of dealing with customs etc. I know this kumquat is seedless, but I have also seen that people do find seeds in fruit (not much but none the less). Any forum member here from China or someone who can help me regarding this topic? Thanks in advance. I live in EU btw

In Europe you can't because there isn't one. Only know about the taste and hardiness from what I've read - ordinary lemon taste but cold hardy to -8 °C. In my micro-location, it goes right about there.

Citrus General Discussion / Re: Does UGA Grand Frost Lemon comes true to type from seed?
« on: November 03, 2020, 11:49:25 PM »
Ok guys thanks for the explanation, now the question is does anyone have some seeds because I am willing to buy. The only thing is I am located in EU and this lemon originates from the USA, but for the seeds that won't pose a problem.

Hello, I am wondering does this lemon comes true to type from seeds? And if so, I would like to acquire some seeds from anyone who grows it. Thanks

I have also read about cold hardy avocados like Fantastic, that might grow in my zone outdoors. Any thoughts?

Don't know either, but I think I saw somewhere on eBay guy selling scions but it was long time ago. It will have to wait a week or two anyway because I cant order online anything right now - some hacker got my credit card info (dont know how) and I must wait till my bank issues me a new card for online ordering.

Guys thanks for your help I really appreciate it, out of these mentioned fruits I will definitely search for strawberry guava and white sapote seeds. I will research a little more about sapodilla as well. As for pink guava it really looks great in your greenhouse but unfortunately greenhouse is not an option, at least for me.

SeaWalnut - you grow pink guava outdoors in ground or in pot?
johnb51 - no I have never eaten white sapote, but I have read it's fantastic, don't know its fruiting time but will search for seeds

My favourite from the fruits you mentioned is strawberry guava although fruits are somewhat small (but ordinary guava cant be grown here outdoors I guess).

Hi, I dont know if this question was previously answered somewhere in this forum but I will ask anyway. From your experience what is (are) tropical fruit trees that can handle zone 9a. Most of the time winter temps dont go below -5°C, but on occasion it can go lower (depending on how hard winter is that year). So if you know what will successfully grow in my area please write, especially if you are in this zone and have attempted growing some tropical fruits. Thanks.

That is why I am interested in it - allegedly cold hardy. And a few stores in USA sell it, but none in EU (as far I searched).
