The citrange (X Citroncirus webberi) is a cross between the sweet orange and the trifoliate orange. Perhaps the most cold-hardy citrus yet is the 'Thomasville' citrangequat, a cross between the citrange and the nagami kumquat, and hardy to about 0F.
Since it is much hardier than Citrus -- taking frost down to 5º F -- hybridizers graft orange and lemon cuttings onto Poncirus to produce hardy "citranges".
