Calamansi
3+ years old Grafted Calamansi onto trifoliate. The plants are going to flower this season. A large size, beautiful and healthy looking plant.
This is the real Asian calamansi or Filipino Citrus plant. They are slightly different than the cross bred calamansi and has a distinguished smell and an intense lime taste. Plants are well established most already producing flowers/fruit at the moment.
Calamansi is a small citrus fruit, with a bright orange flesh and a peel that goes from green to orange as it ripens. It tastes sour with a hint of sweetness, like a mix between a lime and a mandarin. It has a distinctive aroma – citrusy and floral.
One of the most popular citrus and widely used in Asian cuisine, Calamansi can be found in fruit juices, and as a garnish for other well-known meals in Asian cuisine.

I received the tree with some fruits on it already. It has survived the winter season. Now, it is growing fruits again. Love it!
