One of the easiest citrus varieties to grow.
These are one of our most popular citrus varieties for good reason, they are one of the easiest going, have lovely scented blooms, neat foliage and produce loads of fruits even on a small tree.
Just as pictured, this weeks calamondins are covered in lots of ripening green fruits - they are just starting to turn from green to orange, and will carry on slowly ripening over the coming weeks and months.
Such a pretty plant that fruits on and off throughout the year. Harvesting the ripe fruits will trigger the plant to produce more flowers which smell heavenly and have the promise of the next crop to come.
Calamondin trees are the perfect windowsill citrus, they will thrive and produce fruits even in a small space. Great for citrus beginners, to brighten a kitchen or table top. The fruits are tart but delicious in a g and t, or why not try your hand at Calamondin marmalade!
Good to know: Even though we carefully wrap all of our plants, when the fruit are heavy and or ripe on the tree, it's not unusual for the odd one to be dislodged in transit.
