Hello everyone my name is Henry and I'm 27 years old and I've been a citrus enthusiast since I was 10 years old! I have over 32 kinds of citrus growing including chimeras and some Australian finger limes. I'm very interested to learn more on this forum.

It looks like you're in California. What are you growing?

Welcome. I am curious to know the chimeras you have. It's a chimera between kinkoji "grapefruit" and a satsuma , L2 and L3 are presumed to be from the kinkoji and L1 is satsuma. I also have one between poncrius and satsuma as well |

> one between poncrius and satsuma
Do you mean the Prague or an other one?

What is the Prague one? Welcome, Henry! I will be 33 this year and started growing exotic plants about 10 years ago. It is nice to see some younger folks in this hobby (no offence to anyone else  ). The Prague is also a graft chimera between Poncirus and Satsuma. It is very coldhardy and its fruit are a lot like satsumas. I have only had fruit once so far but they were tasty and sweet, only the membranes were a bit thicker than with store-bought satsumas.

Wow I love it! Such a strange growth habit! Welcome, Henry! I will be 33 this year and started growing exotic plants about 10 years ago. It is nice to see some younger folks in this hobby (no offence to anyone else ). The Prague is also a graft chimera between Poncirus and Satsuma.
