Nice! We never get these colors here, but maybe because we don't normally get a frost until mid / late December.

Mine don’t color up much either. My first freeze is between Halloween and 11/12.

Two of my Flying Dragon seedlings have completely red autumn color, rest of my Poncirus plants have yellow or Yellow-Orange-Red color... |

This seems to be dependent on the climate and plant. In my climate Poncirus gets nice colors, depending on the plant it is more red or yellow. Flying dragon is more red:
Another Poncirus is mostly yellow:
Hybrids of the Flying dragon shown above (with Nagami kumquat) also get reddish colors. |

I have some grafts of your red FD. I hope that I can see these colors soon in my garden.
I like that your Nagami x FD are deciduous.

Have you planted them in ground? When does Poncirus leaves color up in your climate?
In my area they usually start to change colors in September and fall off in October.

Well this is good to see because its my first year growing poncirus and my flying dragon has gone red i was beginning to wonder if there was something wrong since all my normal poncirus are still green and looking normal.

None of my poncirus or poncirus hybrids turn color during the winter, as they are all kept in a warm greenhouse. Some discard leaves but otherwise say green.

They are still small potted plants. By now potted plants are still green in my yard. Another FD in open ground is beginning to change the color while P.t. is still green. I took this picture of seedling Poncirus some years ago, all siblings at the same time around 30. November

Are all seedlings trifoliate? I can only see one leave in the picture which could be monofoliate..

For the moment they are entirely trifoliate.
They will spend this winter at zone 7a place in Pyrenees mountains. |
