Plant Description

The Citrus japonica, commonly known as Kumquat, is a compact evergreen shrub or small fruiting tree with lustrous, deep green leaves and fragrant white flowers. Its standout feature is its small, oval-shaped orange-golden fruits, typically 2–4 cm long, which are unique for their edible peel and sweet-tart taste. The fruits form in clusters and can remain on the tree for weeks, adding vibrant color through winter. The tree has a neat, rounded shape and elegant branching, making it a favorite for ornamental and edible gardens.
