Siamani twins . I'll try and plant and see if they can separate themselves, or just keep moistened for now and see if they separate after some time. cheers,FexRe: 2 trees from 1 seed, libani twin trunk ?

Some plants regularly produce polyembryonic seeds and I'm guessing that is what is happening here.
Most citrus seeds contain 3 or 4 embryos and, even more interesting, usually only 1 is the result of fertilisation. The others are clones of the mother

interesting, so what do you think happened,the seed already had 2 embryos inside, maybe 2 identical trees, or notshibui wrote:Some plants regularly produce polyembryonic seeds and I'm guessing that is what is happening here.
