Citrus x citrofortunella mitis ‘variegata’ “Calamondin Orange”
The famous ‘Calamondin’ orange has beautiful cream and green variegated foliage making it a very desirable ornamental fruiting plant. But don’t be fooled, the small, juicy, sour oranges are also edible, and are often used for preserves or cooking. Fragrant flowers appear spring to summer and a heavy set of fruit follows, ripening in time for the holidays. The ripe fruit holds well on the plant adding to its decorative show. The variegation does slow its growth a bit but makes it more desirable for container culture.
Hardy to Zone 9 and higher for outdoors.
Full sun, grows to 1-3’ in container, minimum temperature 50°, blooms in spring and summer.
Fragrant!
