Unlike many citrus, the fruit is best eaten whole, where the sweet outer skin balances the gently acidic centre, creating a unique and refreshing flavour.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThis compact, bushy evergreen tree produces deep orange fruit with very few seeds, slightly larger than other kumquat varieties. Fruit develops over a long season, providing extended harvests and ornamental appeal.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFlowering in late spring, it fills the air with fragrant citrus blossoms before setting its colourful fruit, making it both decorative and productive.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare \u0026amp; Growing Tips\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPlant in full sun in well-drained soil or a quality potting mix.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nWater regularly during dry periods, especially while establishing and when fruit is developing. Mulch to retain moisture and keep roots cool, leaving space around the trunk.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFeed with a citrus fertiliser as directed to encourage healthy growth and fruiting.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMeiwa is more cold tolerant than many citrus varieties, making it a great choice for cooler climates.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nTake care when planting—ensure soil is well-prepared and free-draining. In heavier soils, consider planting on a raised mound to improve drainage.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Pots, patios and courtyard gardens\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Small space citrus growing\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Edible and ornamental planting\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Fresh eating, preserves and marmalade\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Cooler climate gardens\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n","brand":"Warran Glen Garden Centre \u0026 Cafe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48818542346491,"sku":"km165","price":69.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0453\/6601\/8210\/files\/37179_IMG-5532-9.jpg?v=1777354653","url":"https:\/\/warranglen.com.au\/products\/kumquat-meiwa-16-5cm-pot","provider":"Warran Glen Garden Centre \u0026 Cafe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
