4" Pot Size Grafted Plant

'Meiwa’ is known as the Sweet Kumquat with the typical golden-orange colored fruit that other kumquat trees have. Yet eating a ‘Meiwa’ kumquat is a delight unto itself. Pop the entire large gumball-sized fruit into your mouth and allow the sweet flavors to permeate your senses. ‘Meiwa’ is not available commercially like ‘Nagami’ (the oval kumquat) but they are easily grown in a home environment as long as you have a sunny window and keep the root system healthy by drying the soil a little between waterings. The highly fragrant blooms arrive in summer with fruit ripening during the winter, usually from December through April. This is the perfect plant to give you that vitamin C boost in the dead of winter. Our grafted plant blooms and fruits sooner.

Keep the root systems healthy and active. A period of dryness helps stimulate flowers and fruiting. Mimic Florida’s climate- wet summers and dry fall/winters.

Most important for potted citrus:

• Full sun and high light. The more the better.• For faster growth and an active root system, grow them warm.• Do not over pot.• Grow in clay pots for optimum root health.• Fertilize spring through fall. • High light aids in flowering and fruiting.• Fertilize in growing season 1-2 times a month.• Water when the soil is visually dry or at first signs of wilt.

The tree is healthy

the tree is healthy, green and has some fruits on it already. the book they sell also covers care for this kumquat, citrons and all of the fruiting plants that can be easily grown inside. The price is more than reasonable and i am satisfied with my purchase. Would recommend!

This is my second Meiwa from Logee's, and if anything, this one looks even better than the first when it arrived.

THANKS LOGEES YALL ARE STILL AWESOME!

My sweet Meiwa came today! I was so happy! Looks very healthy and made it safely lol Thanks again Logees for being awesome!

Wow

Fast shipping. Beautiful green leaves. I can't wait to repot it and watch it grow! Will be ordering again very soon.

meiwa kumquat looks fantastic

The tree is tall and it has thick branches. The tree looks healthy and strong. I feel like it is a little leggy and could have been kept bushier and shorter. However the tree has thick green branches so I am very happy with it. The main rootstock is thick and looks strong and healthy.I feel like this tree was a fantastic buy for the price. I will buy from this company again for sure.
