The Calamansi or Calamondin is a hybrid fruit - think half mandarin orange and half kumquat. They are edible with a sweet peel and a sour bite. They are especially great for baked goods, jams, and cocktails. Most notably, the calamondin’s year round blooming cycle offers a stunning transformation of dark green leaves, white flower petals, and bright orange fruit. Calamondins are also known for the fresh citrus aroma they give off when in bloom.
Depending on season, plants range from 18-22 inches tall and 6-8 inches wide. Plants are shipped in standard black one gallon growing pots.
Growing citrus indoors (no matter where you are) is easy!
Regardless of your level of gardening experience, if you have daily direct sunlight available, your tree can thrive and flourish indoors!
My Calamansi tree arrived packaged with care and buds ready to bloom. A couple weeks later and the flowers have opened with a heavenly almost honeysuckle like fragrance. I can't wait to see the fruit.
It was a gift for my daughter her direct review. "It's a wonderful tiny tree. Came with loads of flowers and baby fruits. We've enjoyed the tiny sour oranges. It's held up to me not watering it for longer than it should. It's pretty great."
It took a few months and now producing tons of fruit.
We initially had a few questions and response was amazingly quick and helpful.
We are very happy/ satisfied with our Calamondin plant. Thank you for the Inquiry because i was not sure as to when we could harvest the fruit. The plant itself is doing well. ( i wish i could have said the same for the meyor lemon i purchased- that died soon after I got it).
I love my little plant, she lets me know when to water her as soon as she needs it (leaves start drooping a little). I live in Florida, so I keep her on the patio and she’s been flowering and giving fruit continuously. Planning to purchase another one for my mom
My friend loves the gift. It's bearing fruit and she gets to use the calamansi when she's cooking, baking or making drinks. It also reminds her a little bit of home.
I can't believe how gorgeous this little tree is. It is the middle of winter here in Minnesota and we had a horrible cold snap the days leading up to this tree's delivery. I was expecting to get a tree that needed to be nurtured back to health after it's travels, but it showed up as perfect! After unwrapping it from it's package I noticed it came with a cute instruction card. I've been following the instructions included and it has been sitting in a sunny window for a few days and has gotten even more beautiful! It has sprouted dozens of little white buds and some of the m have already begun to bloom!
