Is the dragon lime a manmade hybrid?

Is this a hybrid or a chance sport of Trifoliate?

It is a chance seedling that originated in Texas.

I believe Bonnie Childers discovered it.

Does dragon lime start off predominantly trifoliate as a juvenile, than over time increases having monofoliate leaves?

I have several potted Dragon Limes grafted about 15 years ago, so I read your question and thought that it's fairly unlikely (unless you are talking about seedlings) and I would surely have noticed it on my plants.
Then I went to have a look, and now I think you're correct. There do seem to be quite a lot of monofoliate leaves.
My only possible doubt is that, with winter approaching, the plant does lose some leaves. Perhaps the smaller side leaves of each trifoliate leaf tend to fall first? But overall, I think you are probably right and there are more monofoliate leaves than on the original plants.
