Description
The Mandarin Citrus Tree, also known as the Citrus Calamondin, is a charming citrus tree that instantly adds a Mediterranean flair to your home or garden. This compact tree produces glossy, dark green leaves that release a refreshing citrus scent when touched. In addition to its visual appeal, this tree is best known for its aromatic flowers and decorative fruits.
In the right climate, the Citrus Mandarino develops fragrant white blossoms that transform into small, orange Calamondin fruits. These edible fruits combine the tang of a lime with the sweetness of a mandarin – perfect for making marmalade or refreshing drinks.
Placement and Light Requirements
For optimal growth, place your citrus tree in a sunny location that receives at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily. The Citrus Mandarino thrives both indoors and outdoors as long as it receives enough light. In warmer months, it is perfect for your balcony, terrace, or garden. When temperatures drop, simply bring it indoors – as it is not frost-hardy and should overwinter indoors in colder climates.
Watering and Care
The Citrus Mandarino requires moderate watering. Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid waterlogging. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. Water weekly and adjust frequency based on the season and humidity levels. In warm indoor environments such as heated living rooms, more frequent watering may be necessary.
During the growing season – from spring to early autumn – fertilize your tree with a liquid citrus feed to encourage optimal fruit production.
