Greetings from Sweden!
I hope it's OK to place my first post here as I'm looking for 2 species that doesn't seem to be that common in Europe. And as I live in the EU I can't readily get it from Japan or the US.
Anyway, I'm wondering if any of the European members might have:
* Okniawan lime / Shikwasa / Citrus x depressa
* Kabosu / Citrus x sphaerocarpa |

I read about Kabosu and Shekwasha, but I've never seen them anywhere... _________________ - Marc |

Lately there have been posts about citrus and Okinawa., This is the second post relating to an Okinawan citrus variety. This surprises me, because I lived on the island of Okinawa (Naha City) for two years and never even seen a citrus tree of any type growing there. Are you sure there is an actual unique Okinawan Lime variety, or is it just a variety of lime brought to the island from elsewhere, and someone is calling it an "Okinawan Lime"? - Millet (181 to go-) |

Hi Carl,
Where in Sweden do you live?
If you live in Skåne you should come by my nursery in Copenhagen.

Looks nice. I live just north of the capital so it's a bit to Copenhagen. But if I ever end up down there I'll try to pay you a visit. |

Nice. My french is non-existing, but would you be willing to separate from any of them given a reasonable compensation? |
