Just purchased some kumquats from Wally-Mart. Brand was Kumquat Growers - Fresh Florida Kumquats out of Dade City, Fla. Looked at their site and the only show 2 types available, Meiwa and Nagami. The Nagami are available now and the Meiwa aren't available till later this month.
Anywho.....picked the viable seeds out of them while I was eating and decided to try to grow them out since they are polyembyonic, I should get at least a couple of sprouts identical to the mother plant which would be awesome! Just need to wait about 3 years and hope the kids don't hurt themselves on the thorns.
