Description

An attractive full-bodied dwarf citrus with oval, glossy leaves and white, fragrant flowers. The small and round fruits are edible and have a sour taste. It thrives in a bright place, even in direct sunlight. The soil should be permeable and acidic in pH. Dwarf citrus is a cross between mandarin and kumquat. The variety is primarily known as an ornamental plant, but it is also grown for its fruit juice. The orange fruits are small and round. Their taste is sour and slightly bitter. The fruits can be eaten with the skin on, but they are not particularly tasty. Rather, they have a decorative value. The reason for the popularity of this citrus is above all its beautiful and wonderfully fragrant flowering. The plant can bloom throughout the year.
