"Kumquat" means "golden orange" in Mandarin Chinese and is a very common tree in China and Japan. An evergreen plant belonging to the citrus family, with slow growth, the kumquat can be grown in our garden and reach a height of 3-4 meters. The kumquat is an ideal tree for planting in a pot on the balcony, where it is very often planted for decoration and shows a more controlled growth. Kumquat blooms in mid-summer with lovely white fragrant flowers and gives us orange or orange-yellow fruits that ripen in January-February and look like elongated tiny oranges. The oval kumquat fruit is pitted and like all citrus fruits is rich in vitamins A and C. Although the skin of the kumquat fruit is very aromatic with a sweet taste, its flesh is not very juicy and has a sharp and bittersweet taste. That is why kumquat is usually not eaten raw but used to make liqueurs, jellies, jams and desserts. So let's see how we can grow the kumquat for its distinctive fruits, as well as to enjoy the unique beauty of the dark green leathery leaves and orange-yellow fruits.
