Default Citrus Cocktail trees

are the most common type in Florida. I also would try Rich Toth. I currently have a Meyer lemon and Persian lime in pots. They can be frost sensitive in harsh winters. We wheel them into the garage then. You could probably plant a citrus cocktail in a large pot on your patio and keep it trimmed to garage height.

I would ask Rich - he really knows his stuff and I think will be very honest the care involved. You really don't have to do much to citrus except fertilize every couple of months, and maybe keep them pruned for size if they are in pots.
