Limequat (Citrus Fruit)Citrus x floridana

The Limequat is an unusual cross between a lime and a kumquat. It bears small fruits, averaging 3-4 centimetres in diameter, which mature from green to yellow. The sweet skin contrasts with the tart fruit and Limequats make a deliciously different marmalade. The juice and rind can also be used in cocktails, desserts, and sauces

Citrus trees are ideal feature plants, bringing a touch of Mediterranean style to conservatories and patios. They make excellent, long-lasting, and fragrant gifts. When you give an orange or a lemon tree as a present, you’re giving a decorative, scented, and productive plant! The delicate waxy, and highly scented flowers are beautifully offset by the lush, shiny green foliage.

They will take time to mature and fruit, but are wonderful, classy plants in their own right with the additional bonus of intense scent throughout the year and especially winter. Hardy to 5°C, they are best grown outdoors from May to October, and brought inside for the winter.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
