I want a dwarf blood orange tree or a dwarf orange tree that has sweet fruit. I live in Texas, Borderline zone 7b, 8a. Anyone have one for sale? I actually suceeded on my Meyer Lemon tree (thanks to this forum) and now I think I'm good so I want to try my hand at a blood orange tree. If anyone knows of a better orange tree that will be grown in a container, I'm open for suggestions but I need a dwarf so it won't get too big. Thanks

Even a dwarf will get very large in a container.

Btw what parts of Texas are you in.
I think mr Tex is growing on rootstock that gives some dwarfing.
His username is mr.Texas and he frequents this website.

Hmmm, thanks Laaz, I will keep that in mind.

David, I live about 30 miles East of Dallas now but will be moving soon to Glen Rose. I will try to get in touch with Mr Tex. Thanks for the info.
