A friend gave me 3 fruit of a new citrange at the SE Texas citrus show last night.

He discovered it in a batch of trifoliate seedlings. I tasted it and it is better than dragon lime. It has a hint of trifoliate smell. It is a pretty fruit and needs sugar to sweeten it. I'll send anyone the seeds for the cost of postage.

MrTexas, can you send me some seeds, perhaps just 3 pcs to try out (and have others their chances too), please? Will send you the check for priority mail.

Mr Texas,

Maybe its possible to send a few seeds to the Netherlands?
I also would love to grow these, and maybe, over a couple of years, even outside? (zone 7)
Thanks in advance,
Erik

I've had seedlings come into bloom in 1, 2, 3 and 5 years in the ground. A friend waited 17 years for a cocktail grapefruit in the ground! I can get budwood.
