Hey there, I have a Lemonquat - the tag says it's Fortunella hindsii x Citrus limon. I looked for lemonquat in plantfiles and the one I found is not the same as this one. If I add this one, I don't know how I would list it. Anyone there who can help?

The way it's listed in Plant Files is the correct way to list it. Intergeneric hybrids are typically given a new name that starts with an X and then includes parts of both the genera that went into it. Thus Fortunella x Citrus gives you X Citrofortunella, which is the way it's listed in PF.
