Growing in a pot

Grafted (dwarf)

An exceptionally sweet, juicy variety with easy-to-remove skin. Has a lot of glitches. The fruit resembles that of the “Minneola” tangelo in shape and appearance. The color and flavor of the fruit are a good balance between intense sweetness and a typical citrus acidity. The trees grow very vigorously and after a few years of establishment and rooting in pots, they show good resistance to cold in -1 to -3°C as well as high tolerance to HLB (citrus greening). Great fruit for juicing or eating fresh as a snack, just go around the seeds.

Height at maturity: 10-12 feet.

Harvest: November to December.

Self-fertile

Instructions for growing in pots: 

Leave the plant outside between May and October but bring it inside between October and the end of April, until the spring frosts are over. Place in a warm place on your land protected from the winds and place in full sun. Enlarge the pot every 2 years as needed depending on growth and add fertilizer of your choice as needed. Can easily withstand a semi-dormant winter period in a cool place between 8° and 14°C... Ex: semi-heated garage. Finally...Remember to acclimatize your plant to the sun in spring by not placing it directly in full sun for the first few days but going there gradually otherwise the leaves will burn in the sun in a few days.
