Bitter orange rootstock I can get - but nothing to graft onto it and I can grow my own stock for that if I can get seeds for topstock for grafting. I have been spreading lemons (hitherto unheard of) around locally and have some seedy pink grapefruit. please pm me if you have anything you would like to send me.

Cassie, the major season's almost over. Aside from different kinds of Lemons and Calamondins, I can collect seeds of my Mandarinquats (for sure) and Sanguinelli Blood Orange (maybe, sometimes they don't have seeds). I still have them hanging on my trees. I may have some more fruits, but most are in the true seedless category. Is it legally okay for you to receive seeds?
You know that in the US Citrus industry, we have an extremely contorted definition of what seedless citrus is. If a fruit contains 6 or fewer seeds, then they are categorized as seedless. By this definition, all of my kumquats and calamondins are seedless!
