Hi Landwish, I think you're referring to the Calamansi tree (Calamondin or Citrofortunella microcarpa.) I have seen people train this plant into a bonsai. Please click on the link below and see if I got it right:

    Could be what is known locally as a Jerusalem Pepper . They grow and look like a bansai. The peppers are orange but not edible.
