I ran across a Mexican Lime in the produce bin last week with one yellow longitudnal stripe down the side. I was going to juice it along with the rest of them, but I decided to hold it out and collect the seeds. Are they of any interest to you?

Not that is very cool. The leaves are not variegated, just the fruit ?

By the way I have the answer to your rat problem Wink

I allready feeded the rats - now they are dead Cool

The leaves of the Grapefruit are only minimum variegated, like sometimes c.aurantium "Deutsche Landsknechtshose".
You will never find white areas on the leaves, only lighter and darker green strings.
