Citrus ‘W. Murcott Afourer’ Mandarin (Citrus reticulata hybrid)

Citrus ‘W. Murcott Afourer’ Mandarin (Citrus reticulata hybrid)
‘W. Murcott’ Mandarin was imported to California from Morocco in 1985 for its delicious fruit. The sweet, juicy orange fruit is easy to peel and matures during the winter months but holds onto the tree well into spring. It may be eaten fresh or juiced for a delicious, healthy beverage. This moderate-sized, mandarin orange tree can be grown as a potted plant in the north, or planted in the garden in warmer zones. This is a grafted plant that blooms and fruits sooner.
