Enjoy Sweet, Edible Kumquats Year-Round
The Meiwa Sweet Kumquat is a must-have for citrus lovers, offering a deliciously sweet alternative to the more common kumquat varieties. Unlike the tangy Nagami Kumquat, Meiwa's golden-orange fruit is larger, with a sweet, edible rind and juicy flesh that provides a burst of flavor.
This small, evergreen tree features glossy, dark green foliage and fragrant white blooms that arrive in spring, followed by fruit that ripens from December through April. The Meiwa Sweet Kumquat is a natural hybrid, first cultivated in Japan, and is prized for its minimal seeds and easy growth in a home environment.
The Meiwa Kumquat trees bloom and fruit sooner than seed-grown trees, making them the ideal choice for those seeking a quick and healthy citrus snack or a vitamin C boost in the colder months. Don't miss out on this popular citrus tree. Grow yours today!

Received In Great Health and Condition
I received this tree on July 8th in zone 5B. I let it acclimate on my very shaded back porch for about 3 and 1/2 days and then transplanted into a 14-in terracotta pot. Shortly after I ended up waterlogging the roots and the trees health declined somewhat rapidly (yellow leaves, drooping leaves and just not looking full in green like it had arrived). What I soon learned was that letting the tree dry out was not going to hurt it. So now I only water when the top three or so inches of dirt is dry, Making sure that roots are getting the oxygen that they need. Now that the tree has been on an incline in health, it is about time to start setting up an indoor grow light setup as the weather is about to start getting cold at night. kumquats are one of my favorite fruits to eat as a treat. If you can successfully pull off all the things this tree needs it is a very rewarding feeling in not just knowing you can keep a plant alive in a climate It is not designed to live in, but also knowing and addressing signs of plant health before things are too late to address. I have very high hopes for this plant and have a feeling it will definitely be living up to them if it already hasn't. A great plant for someone wanting to be involved in gardening inside and outside, a potted plant is very versatile in placement. Will very likely be looking for another citrus addition to the garden next year.
