Same thing happening to mine in GA. It is most likely the heat, previous summer it was fine but now it's beaten up from the abnormal heat of this summer.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Pouteria torta cold tolerance?

Have always heard that this is the hardiest of Pouteria but never see any actual comment on the hardiness, hope someone could chime in?

Close up on the leaves, they are definitely Citrus glauca seeds germinated but of course they aren’t pure and are hybrids. Of course I don’t know the parent because it could be anything. Different hybrids show different growth forms and other characteristics .

They aren't pure glauca, they are open pollinated therefore is a F2 Citrus glauca.

No, its citrus glauca. Check out the leaves, they have some serration to them and I don't recall finger limes having serration on the leaves. And the leaves are thin not as broad as finger lime.

It's probably a hybrid if it keeps on putting out trifoliate leaves

Citrus glauca, heard they're on pair with kumquat or maybe hardier when dormant, need to find where I got that from though. Debating between US-942 or Rubidoux trifoliate for rootstock. The plant will be in the pot for most of its life.

First time grafting and it's going to be a microcitrus species. What's the best grafting technique for grafting small twigs?

Cold Hardy Citrus / Re: Monoembryonic Hardy Orange?
« on: April 24, 2022, 11:37:09 AM »
I got these seeds and they sprouted this summer, they are monoembryonic but not zygotic. They all appear to look the same, I'll let them grow out more to determine more.

Here is one that grew some seed, which had leaves that looked hybridized but appears to have change the petiole size this spring.

Does anyone live in Chile? Trying to source Chilean species and haven’t found any hope online.

I've had the same thing with my "ichang papeda" from Woodlanders. They sell seedlings and do not sell grafted ichang papeda. Pretty much all citrus on their website will come true except Ichang papeda.

Update, had a very early spring and are growing fast. One out of them all seems to be the most vigorous. Seedling pot of Citrus ichangensis, N1Tri, and Ichangstar60.

Cold Hardy Citrus / F2 Citrus glauca
« on: February 16, 2022, 09:21:47 PM »
Got seeds early this year and decided to germinate them. All showing different characteristics so definitely not pure glauca. Will see how they fare this upcoming winter.
