Where are you located?
I am going to toss mine. In fact overgraft.
Rind and pulp are disgusting, not edible. |

Living in Australia I can only fantasize about its taste...I did read somewhere that it has heavenly scent...and it looks so cool. |

So, Sylvain, do you have seeds? That would be an only way to get it into Australia.
Thanks |

I believe it is actually a sour mandarin & not a lemon.

For Marc I made a new taste test.
- The rind is orange, not deep red like on most pictures. It must depend on the culture conditions.
The smell is not bad. Between mandarin and lemon when the fruit is yellow and like navel orange when the fruit is orange.
The taste is undefined, not good, not very bad. No interest.
- The juice is light orange, acidic with a very bad taste that I cannot define.
I found seeds. Citrusmint, can you send me your address in PM? |

Again, I believe it is a red rangpur lime. Rangpur limes are nasty...

Rangpur is supposed to make a good rootstock.
