Before moving to Phoenix in 2008, I had no idea that Arizona had such an abundance of winter citrus. Currently I am growing Meyer lemon (my favorite), Lisbon lemon, Ponderosa lemon, Valencia orange, Nagami kumquat, Rio Red grapefruit, Bearss lime, and Moro blood orange. I only have room for one or two more, but on my wish list are Buddha's Hand citron, Kaffir lime, mandarin, calamondin, finger lime, or yuzu.
