Does anyone know whether either of these is available anywhere near here? We have space for a couple of more small trees we would like to plant when we get back:
-Mandarinquat: I ran into these during a rare visit to this upscale food shop here. In case you haven't guessed, it's a hybrid between a mandarina and a kumquat. Delicious! It's like a kumquat but is sweet on the inside, too. We did get a kumquat tree at a nursery in Comala.
-Finger lime: I read about this in a cooking mag in the doctor's office. Allegedly, you can scoop out the little juice sacs like citrus caviar and, allegedly, it's very good.
Thanks!

Sorry - haven't ever heard of either fruit but I am very curious about what you called an upscale food market. Where is it & what is it called?
Maybe try printing off a photo of the tree as well as the fruite from google & take to a local vivero or two.
Thx.

I guess the pronouns were a bit confusing, but I knew what I meant... The upscale market was back here in the U.S.
Hope you guys are doing well and we'll be seeing you in a month or so!
