left to right..
Meiwa Kumquat (large tan pot)
Indio Mandarinquat (large black pot towards back)
Bloom Sweet Grapefruit (large terracotta colored plastic pot)
Finger lime (small tan pot infront)
Kimbrough Satsuma (large tan pot)
Sanguinella blood orange (Large tan pot)
Grafted root stock (small tan pot)
the two 4" terracotta pots infront are rootstock with meiwa kumquat on them.. not sure they are going to make it or not.. the black pot in far left corner has date palm in it but the leaves are tied back so I could take the picture..
Everyone was unhappy about being stuck outside all night.. the temp only got down to 56* according to the weather channel.. but there was a bit of limp leaf and since it is suppose to get cooler tonight they were brought in..
Guess will have to wait a few more weeks before they can go out more perminantly..

How old are those FDs? Mine arent as branched.... I should probably fertilize more. ... I started everyone on a ration of compost tea this week, they should perk up.
