I live in Hampton, VA and I am looking for either seeds or seedlings of the following varieties....Yuzu, Dunstan citrumelo, Thomasville citrangequat, Changsha mandarin, Satsuma. I have done a little research and heard these varieties might winter out at my place and they all produce fairly tastey fruit after a couple of years. I originally wanted seeds from the plants, but I hear that the seeds do not transport well. I guess I would take the whole fruit if that would help or seedlings would also be appreciated. Looking for someone on here to purchase these from or if someone can let me know where to but these plants at. Thanks for your help.

Andrew

Seeds transport just fine. I dry them overnight and dust them with fungicide the next day. They can keep in the refrigerator for 6 months this way. I don't see why a few days in the mail would hurt them.

Andrew I'm right here in the Tidewater area in Virginia Beach. I have seeds for everything on your wish list and maybe some plants too that you could pick up. Just send me a PM.
