jakfruit etiquette says... Is it grafted ? Bush Lemons are usually seedlings, and as seedlings they are variable. Bush Lemons are Lemon X Mandarin, so its usual to get bits of both, and some trees may have fruit more like lemon, or others more like mandarin. Another possibility is Rangpur Lime, also a very similar Lemon X Mandarin, the fruit more like sour mandarins. Both have been used as rootstocks, so could take over from a weak or failed graft. | About the Author jakfruit etiquette vic 11th October 2018 10:22am #UserID: 5133 Posts: 915 View All jakfruit etiquette's Edible Fruit Trees |

Julie says... Mine are around 2.5 cm. the tree is seedling grown, not from cuttings, so that may make a difference. It has a smooth skin, definitely not puffy. Maybe the particular variety of mandarin they crossed with would account for variations? My plan was to make marmalade, but they are quite small, so I have been saving them in the freezer till I have enough. It is growing in a large pot, so will never be a full-sized tree. | About the Author Julie Roleystone WA 15th October 2018 8:00pm #UserID: 154 Posts: 1842 View All Julie's Edible Fruit Trees |
