Kumquats, golden oranges, or Japanese oranges, are the smallest trees of the citrus family. They grow and give the best, largest, and sweetest fruit production in warmer regions.
Kumquat fruits are eaten whole with the peel, as the peel is sweet, and the fruit is considered mature when it reaches the yellow-orange color stage.
Plant Care đŸª´
Sunlight: Kumquat trees thrive in full sun to partial shade. Provide them with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and fruit production.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply when the top inch of soil feels dry, especially during hot, dry weather. Reduce watering frequency in winter when growth slows. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
Pruning: Prune Kumquat trees as needed to maintain their shape and size, remove dead or damaged branches, and encourage airflow within the canopy. Pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges.
