Andy - that is amazing!
Remind me again how old these plants are.
My 'hardy citrus' have been outside now for 13 years and still no sign of any fruits. In fact, I have never seen any Poncirus hybrids growing anywhere in the British Isles with the exception of two citranges growing in Dublin Botanic Garden, Ireland. Those plants are old, but have suffered from root-rot at some stage and are not growing very well at all.
