Nice pictures and great plants. That Sampson tangelo is larger that I expected. Wekiwa/Lavender Gems sure are delicious!

Radoslav, that's a beautiful speciman! Smile Is it grown on it's own roots, from cutting? If it isn't, it seems to be grafted onto cutting (volkamer?) at least it's their usual practice... I've purchased from them (in the past) C. sinensis 'Sanguineum pernambuco' with a similar tree form. Btw, does it breed true to type from seeds?

Best,
Igor

That webberii looks like an interesting plant! Are the fruits usable?

Do you have any shots of the wekiwa? I wonder if the inside of the fruit was colored pink! Smile I also wonder what the taste is like.

My Kalpi papeda is grafted.
Usage of Kalpi - it is very juicy and juice is very sour - usage similar to the lemon.
Rind is easy to peel, like mandarin and has a beautiful aroma.
About the wekiwa - to be honest, I do not remember, if it was pink inside. All, what I remeber, is that the taste was not as good as I expected, because the lack of the sugar. Last summer was not good for my citruses, nearly all varieties had thick rind and low sugar.
