Hello All,
I have available Sour Orange Citrus Seeds available for sale. I have packs of 50 seeds available for 10.00 plus shipping. These seeds are generally used as rootstocks for grafting and budding. The seeds are certified by the Texas A&M Certification Program. I do also have some budwood available as well which is also certified.
Please note that I can only ship within the State of Texas. Let me know if you are interested.

Are your sour oranges the same as Hawaiian sour oranges? Their distinctions - big seeds, and almost zero small seeds, so very easy to strain the juice with a colander even. Very juicey, just cut in half and get tons with just a squeeze. Flavor is more like a lime, very sour, excellent for daiquiris. On the outside bottom of the fruit (like where a navel is on orange) there is a little circle. Big fruits, bigger than oranges, not as big as most grape fruit but more like that.

I don't actually have the fruit. I purchase the seeds in a huge quantity and can't possibly use the extras. I use the sour orange seeds strictly for rootstocks. I can't compare the fruit unfortunately.
I do know the a sour orange cultivar generally isn't one commonly eaten but used mostly for rootstocking properties.

I believe I have 2 of these growing in my backyard. One is fruiting and it definately has thorns. I'm sure they go great w/ passion fruit liquer and Oj.. :^)
