I've got 4 hardy oranges I'm willing to share if anyone wants to give this shrub a try. The seeds do not store well, so they need to be sown now. Cold hardy to zone 6a. Handles heat to zone 9b. It blooms in the spring with a light citrus fragrance. Large, thorny stems all year long. Few leaves, but a great habitat for birds. 8-10' tall and wide when mature. Has been growing in deep shade for many years. Also handles full sun. Produces oranges the size of ping pong balls. You can use them to make a lemonade type drink if inclined. Bitter, needs lots of sugar. An odd plant.

Poncirus trifoliata

Post here if you'd like some. Again, I have 4 fruits I'm willing to share. Each has a dozen or so seeds.
