Cumquat Seedlings

[HC]

G'day

I have a Variegated Cumquat Tree that is approx 1.2m high...near the
tree I've found two self-sown seedlings, the seed casing was still
attached to the delicate root system......will the seedlings be Cumquat
or revert to the root stock?

Just curious as to whether I should bother potting them for the front
verandah.

Thanks for any suggestions
Bronwyn ;-)

They will be cumquat.

I wouldn't bother. The roots will be weak.

Thanks.......they are only about 250mm tall now so I'll have to remove
them from where they are in case they takeover....LOL

Thanks anyway ;-)
