Wanted: Desert lime (Citrus glauca) seeds

<< < (4/4)

pagnr:
So basically, don't order from boutique-vegetale.com because they're claiming that it's "not obvious" and "too early" to tell that the plants are C. australasica and not C. glauca.
I contacted them and they're "looking into it" or something like that.

Those seedlings you grew are clearly not C. glauca. I would say also that they clearly are of C.australasica parentage.
Just wondering if those leaves seem a little long and the thorns a little long too to not be a hybrid ?
Hard to tell, I do have some Fingerlimes with longer leaves that look like that, but I haven't grown those seedlings recently.

SeeSchloss:

I thought about it too, but all five seeds seem to give exactly the same kind of plant which I find unlikely.

In addition, as far as I know most C. glauca hybrids ressemble C. glauca very much (especially the elongated leaves) while these really look just like C. australasica."

They eventually told me that "since I'm still doubtful", they will send me some (for free, or a reduced price maybe? it's unclear) seeds of the next harvest, which I suppose means they have a tree themselves, which might give hybrids, but I'm not sure as they didn't answer this question. I also tried to ask for photos of this tree in case it might give a hint, but no answer either.

I can't help with the pure species, but I do have some hybrid plants. I have the hybrid with Meyer Lemon sometimes called 'Razzlequat' as well as another hybrid involving a sour mandarin. I can only offer cuttings, not seeds.

RJami:
Has CCPP got these? If so, I'm about to place my order. Since I assumed it wasn't in the United States, I didn't even ask them. I tried to place an order, but after tracking (and, I assume, permissions), it costs roughly $50 USD to send out 20 seeds. Who knows if they will survive? At that price, I don't think I could risk it.

Seeds or cuttings from who?

The desert lime appears to be unaccessioned in the CCPP which case youd have to request theyll have to reintroduce it again to buy cutttings and that takes literal years lmao.

also there is a link inserted in a period in your post about golf lazers  :P
