Full StoryI have located some locally available citrus and before buying I had the nursery answer my question as to rootstock. They say that the rootstock is Poncirus. My intentions are to put these inground and provide shelter during the winter. They will be against a wall and with the shelter in place they need to be around eight foot in height. I was looking for citrus on flying dragon for dwarfing but since these are available close by the question is can they be kept to eight foot with pruning and if so will it affect the tree to any degree. Collary question, will pruning to this size be a PITA.
BTW I'm in GA z7b or 8 depending on which chart your looking at.
