I have lots of kumquat seedlings, one of the hardiest 'citrus' (not a true citrus). I would love one of your Poncirus Trifoliata. I have one seedling that is white and one that is variagated (the variagated one may grow out of it, I'm told). I actually want to graft one of these kumquats to a Poncirus Trifoliata. I also have rooted blackberries (Arapahoe) and red raspberries (heritage). I have a few perennial flowers, but nothing you are interested in.

This trade is being withdrawn. It looks like there is some difference of opinion about hardiness depending on which website you view. That is why I said "It is supposed to grow outside in USDA zone 5" rather than say it IS hardy in zone 5. I hope GW members will always investigate hardiness and other claims before trading because the Internet may not always be 100% accurate. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poncirus http://www.mobot.org/gardeninghelp/plantfinder/plant.asp?code=E790 http://www.greenbeampro.com/content/view/1479/45/ http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=POTR4

Happy update! First, though, thank those who gave me source suggestions. I was lucky enough to find a local source, though--A year or two ago I spotted a Poncirus trifoliata in the gardens of a dedicated lavender grower in a small town near Gettysburg. I believe it was a Flying Dragon plant. In any case, it had fruited, and there were numerous small seedlings at its base. I was permitted to collect a few of the seedlings, in hopes of getting one to live in my own garden. I took them home, planted them in an outdoor pot, and eventually transplanted the largest (about two inches tall at that point) in a shady spot next to my West-facing driveway.That spot is shaded by a tall pine tree and was in the process of becoming a garden after I discovered the remains of a large pile of mushroom mulch had become rootbound and was therefore no longer usable for mulch. The Poncius was not to be seen at all last summer, although I did not have much time to seek it out due to a family emergency. Therefore, imagine my surprise when, a couple of days ago, I spotted my little Poncirus, now about five inches tall and bravely putting out some new little leaves, only a few feet from a small Nearly Wild rosebush! I can only guess that a rabbit or squirrel bit it off last summer, but that its reported bitter taste saved it from a total uprooting. I placed a rock next it to afford it a bit of protection and am anxiously awaiting further developments. :o) !

Hi I too am interested in your Crocosmia if you have any left. Please check my list to see if I have anything your interested in. Thanks! Michael
