Product Description

We cannot ship citrus to; American Samoa, Arizona, California, Florida, Guam, Hawaii, Lousiana, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, Texas, Virgin Islands as per USDA Regulations. Calamondin. Citrus mitis a.k.a. Panama orange, Scarlet lime, Golden lime. Small citrus fruit resembling a miniature tangerine. Fruits are very juicy, with a sweet but acidic flavor. Common in tropical zones, but lesser known elsewhere. Easy to grow. Bears 2" orange fruits which are sour - like lemon. Aside from being an attractive ornamental tree its fruits make excellent preserves and the juice is a great lemon substitute. Mature height is 6' and it may be pruned. A willing indoor grower with bright light. The tree is a heavy producer of fruit and its masses of small white blossoms are intensely fragrant and flowering much of the year. Leaves are smaller than most citrus. The calamondin is hardy to temperatures in the mid 20's. It can be successfully grown outside throughout California, Florida, and the gulf coast. It makes an excellent house plant or patio plant in colder areas. Propagation: Often by seed, (unlike many other citrus). Seeds are polyembryonic and may produce up to 3-5 seedlings each. Eaten raw, although the flavor is very acidic. Often used to flavor drinks, jellies, and a variety of foods. Native to China. Has now spread throughout much of the South Pacific and the Americas. Grow on the patio or indoors. Loves the sun.

    This tree was very beautiful, and quite a bit larger than I was expecting. The only reason it lost one star is because it isn't straight, it leans significantly to one side. I think I can correct this when I repot after a little while (I don't like to repot right after shipment, because I don't want to overstress any plant), but I currently have to keep it straight and not tip over by leaning it against a wall, which is a little difficult, and I feel like probably not the best for the poor thing! But overall, it is very green and leafy and large and lovely!
