Nice! Is the Budda's hand the only variegated tree that has fruit?

That brings to mind a question-- does fruit from variegated trees taste any different from their non-variegated counterparts?

Of my variegated citrus, I have fruit on a Seville sour orange, Satsuma, Ponderosa lemon, Centennial kumquat, Bergamot orange, Eureka and Lisbon. I pulled off all the fruit on the Cara Cara to get better growth.

I'll get a pic of that tomorrow Millet. It is now in the ground on the side of my house, about 10 ft tall now. It is a lisbon lemon from seed. Three years ago now.

Sudachi is ready ! I love the taste of these little fruit. For anyone growing Sudachi, now is the time to harvest.

Skeet they are the size of Cals. They are excellent in mixed drinks & cooking with. The Japanese use them in almost everything. They are sour but have a very unique taste. About 4-6 seed per fruit.

They will turn yellow if you let them, but are used green & harvested in late Aug early Sept. They are about as cold hardy as a Yuzu.
