Product Description

Citrus Tree
- Kumquat Grow these exotic ‘chinese oranges’, a small citrus fruit! Kumquats, sometimes known as Chinese oranges, are the smallest of the common citrus fruits. Unusually, the skin & zest of a kumquat is sweet, while the juicy insides are tart with a hint of bitterness. A real winter treat, you can eat kumquats whole with no need to peel them. Why not try cooking them with sugar & spices for delicious compôtes & aromatic chutneys? Or make your own kumquat liqueur? These plants are self-fertile & one of the most reliable citrus plants for fruiting with heavy crops of bright orange fruit with a superb flavour. Supplied in a 2.5 litre pot. Citrus trees are surprisingly hardy, tolerating low temperatures & will thrive in most gardens given a warm sunny position. In the UK they are perhaps best grown in a large pot or other suitable containers as this will make it easier for them to be moved as conditions determine. Citrus Trees will not tolerate wetter conditions & waterlogging for any length of time will usually result in the loss of a plant. For this reason, they should be grown in very free-draining soil or compost. Fruiting & Pruning Citrus plants are very rewarding to look after, providing endless interest as the small scented white flowers appear in spring, followed by small fruit as the flowers fade. With the correct conditions the fruit will grow steadily over the next six months until they ripen. The fruits can be picked off or left on the tree for ornamental purposes. To encourage a bushy plant & to maintain a good shape, plants can be trimmed just as the new growth starts to sprout in the spring. Looking after your Citrus Tree
