Seven citrus trees have I; I'd like to try grafting to get the other varieties of citrus. I've never done any grafting, but I've read on it; if time is all I've lost then I'm willing to try it. Will somebody give me some cuttings from a lime, cumquat, blood orange and mandarin orange? I can trade, lemon, tangerine, red grapefruit, white grapefruit, Valencia orange and tangelo. My navel orange tree produces so poorly that I wouldn't suggest using a scion from it. We could exchange at the plant swap Oct. 1st. ------------- July

I had a australian fingerlime but it did not like the humidity here and finally dwindled away. They are understory plants. Are you talking about the fingerlimes that are also red? I think it would be fun to try and create one. I have some Moro blood orange trees and a sanguinelli but they are still young. If I get another Aust. Fingerlime maybe I will try it.

The soil just under the base of the tree may be damp, but I'm betting the rest of the soil in that pot is bone dry. That tree looks like it's dying of lack of water. If I were you I'd take it out of the pot and examine the soil. Sometimes potting mix can seem wet on the surface but have large dry pockets down deeper. If it's a peat based mix, and most store bought are, if it gets too dry one time, it's almost impossible to re-wet from just watering from the top. It would need to be submerged in a larger pot that does not drain, and really let it soak for 24 hours. Then remove and water normally. Imo, 2 weeks without watering is way too long.

Yes, CONGRATS!! What do you like about it..? Come on, share...)) It's a nice looking one to boot.
