My girlfriend has one in PA, she has had it for 3 years now.
She was not impressed.
She got one little piece of some kind of fruit, but the squirrel
stole it.
It grew alright, recieved plenty of rain, but she just isn't
thrilled with it.
Mabey it will take more time for it to really come into it's own.
In the Southwest they've been growing similiar trees called "Cocktail Trees" available at certain Garden Centers. The most popular are a grafted combination of Orange Lemon and Grapefruit. Other citrus fruit variables also exist. They are mostly a novelty tree, not as popular as they were 10-20 years ago. In the majority of cases the tree reverts to the most dominating graft which is the lemon side and then all the fruit ends up tart tasting.
We had one in california it had Lemon, grapefruit, tangelo, and something else. We got 1 tangelo, a sort of grapefruit that never fully ripened none of the toher thing and evnetually the lemon which was the base stock of the tree, took over everythign else and it was a lemon tree, but a poor performing lemon tree.
I've had mine for 7yrs now it produces only 1 fruit something between a peach & apricot it's delicious when we get them before the squirrels do. I live in Frankfort KY
I bought mine at Lowe's on Earth day at 50 % off. I was really just after a different looking tree not the fruit. Good thing. The deer have already found the fruit.
