Citrus tree (Citrus sinensis x glauca) - 2 liter pot

The Eremorange is a prickly citrus tree, a spontaneous cross between an orange and a wild lemon from Australia. This self-pollinating citrus tree grows to a height of 2-3 meters in the ground, but can also be grown in a pot where it remains smaller. The tree is tolerant of dry conditions and can tolerate temperatures of -12°C and lower when dormant.

The fruit is unique; the flesh consists of spheres, which is why this variety is also called caviar lime. This citrus has a subtle, unique flavor and is ideal for use in dishes or drinks. The Eremorange loves full sun and does not tolerate wet feet.

Tips and care:

• Planting: Because the trees are delivered in pots, they can be planted year-round. It's best to plant in the fall, when the soil is still warm and moist, allowing the trees to take root well. Plants planted in the fall have a more developed root system than those planted in the spring.
• Organic/non-organic: This plant material comes from a small-scale grower without an official organic certificate. But don't worry, we're certain it's pesticide-free.
• Note: Citrus plants can sometimes develop slightly yellowish leaves in winter. This is because they shouldn't be fed during this period. Otherwise, they would grow too vigorously, and the new growth would be at increased risk of freezing. Feed the plant again in spring, and it will turn a beautiful green again.
