ragnarlookbrood:
on which rootstock is this clementine?
thanx

brian:
Some kind of orange it looks like to me.  I would crush a leaf and see how it smells to tell more. 

Not trifoliate obviously, and doesn't look like lemon leaf shape, and doesn't look like pummelo/shaddock (petioles aren't very large)

Melenduwir:
Yeah, not trifoliata.  It doesn't quite look like rough lemon to me, although I can't quite rule it out.

Perhaps sour orange?  It's a common rootstock for oranges.  And I believe it has those distinct but slender petioles.

pagnr:
Going by common rootstocks, It looks like Citrus macrophylla, aka Alemow or Colo. Bit soon to tell but foliage is lime like which is a match.
Orange seedlings tend to have trowel/triangular shaped leaves.
Sour Orange tends to have slightly wide petioles and scented leaves. Smooth Seville has grapefruit like leaves, with thin petiole.

Millet:
Sour orange petioles are not slender but are quite winged.
