Oct 7, 2020 · One possibility is there could be several different cultivars of Ichang papeda floating around, with slightly different shaped fruits. Maybe Ichang papeda was collected from different areas or different trees in China. I would imagine there could be a considerable amount of variability for this species in the wild.

Mar 5, 2017 · I grafted my Ichang papeda on flying dragon so it isn't very big. It has pretty leaves similar to kaffir lime. My papeda fruit are small and all virtually seedless or have aborted seeds. I feel that my Ichang lemon tree is prettier though and the larger fruit is more useful. It has survived along side the papeda without much issue.

Sep 21, 2019 · Another reason that Ichang papeda could be more desirable in crosses is that it is more "lemon-like", whereas Yuzu is a little bit more "orange-like" than Ichang papeda, in both color and flavor. Even though Yuzu overall does have slightly better flavor and fruit quality, in the case of someone trying to breed a cold hardy "lemon", Ichang ...

Apr 15, 2020 · That Khasi papeda would have a lime-like flavor is not surprising, because Khasi papeda is also related to (and its native growing range is not that far from) C. micrantha, which is basically the ancestor of limes (and has off-the-charts high levels of …

Aug 20, 2019 · Genetic studies show that Ichang papeda seems to contain a fair amount of C. reticula in its DNA (or DNA markers that correspond to the species mandarin). That wouldn't be the case if Ichang papeda was its own original species, like many sources seem to assume, and makes it more likely Ichang papeda was descended from Yuzu, rather than vice versa.

Sep 21, 2019 · Thanks lebmung. According to your experience on ichang papeda, it must be a useless variety then. I don't think a citrus variety that offers insipid leaves will produce fragrant fruits. Ichang papeda hybrid might slightly improve the cold hardiness but might as well give up the quality of fruits.

Apr 16, 2019 · My three Ichang papeda cuttings have all begun to show signs of leafing out.

These are the size of large bushy shrubs, so they are best picked up here in person rather than shipped. I’m located in Western NC. Message me for details on pick up.

I think on some of the smaller sized plants, the leaves might not be quite as symmetrically sized as on more mature trees.
