I have received 1 pound of purchased ZIZIPHUS jujube (Common Name: Chinese Date Source: India,) resonantly. These Jujube seed that I ordered from a reputable seed company. BUT! these seed Is much larger 3 times as much, with a shape that I am unfamiliar with, and many of the seed is larger than most of the fruit I have eaten.
I Lived in Korea for 4 year and observed many ZIZIPHUS jujube growing wild and in domesticated setting and I have never seed seed this large. I know there is 3 species of ZIZIPHUS. One native to India and Africa (Ziziphus Spinoza) both tropical. Has any one got and reference on these seed so that I may know more about this type. Can these seed be used an root stock? Will these seed be graft compatible with ZIZIPHUS jujube? Is there a more common root stock that I have been missing.

You talk of what you are familiar with but give no size or reference to size.
