Lyn is unfortunately very difficult to deal with, in my experience. Phone may be best, but set your hopes good and low.

I got 4 out of 5 C-22 cuttings to root.  I didn't give them the most stable environment. Sometime it was too hot and sometime a bit dry, but they got plenty of grow light. 
My C-22 sucker is pushing new growth now.  I can give a some cuttings in the summer.  Let me know if you want some.

He finally put them up on his site. I just ordered 100 seeds :) Thanks for the tip!

Hello,

We recently purchased Lyn Citrus Seed from the former owner, who has decided to retire. The person you all may have spoken to on the phone or by email, Maggie, is still working for the company.

For what its worth we do not currently carry US-942, US-812, or FA-5. We are planting US-812 and US-942 trees, but FA-5 is not available to us yet in California through the CCPP. It will unfortunately be several years before we have 812 and 942 seed available to sell.

The small-order situation at LCS may change at some point in the future, especially if we can streamline the order process (and I believe there may be some opportunity to do that for domestic, US-based orders). But for now, my apologies to hobbyists and enthusiasts for the inconvenience and frustration. I know that it is difficult to find sources of quite a few of the less common citrus rootstock seed varieties in non-commercial quantities.

Regards,

Brad

Hello thanks for reaching out to the community. No real frustration on my end at least. I’ll reach out this winter to see what you have available. Best of luck with the biz
