A variegated bud sport on an orange

I was new to growing citrus when this happened a few years ago.  I planted the tree in the ground, fertilized it and the sport promptly died!  So much for the "MrTexas varigated orange!"

Changshou/fairchild/sunquat tree

I had a seedling sunquat tree. The seedling had a few dozen fruit the 2nd year from seed.   I grafted kumquat and fairchild mandarin to two branches.  You can now call it my lopsided variety tree.  Each citrus has their own growth pattern. In this case the kumquat is more vigorous. To the left is the kumquat with fairchild mandarin on the right.
