Citrus × floridana – Limequat
Citrus × floridana, commonly known as the Limequat, is a compact and productive citrus tree valued for its abundant small fruits that combine the sweetness of kumquats with the zingy sharpness of limes. Its slender branches carry glossy evergreen leaves, making it an attractive year-round feature for patios, conservatories, and sheltered gardens.
Highly ornamental and deliciously fragrant, the Limequat produces clusters of scented white flowers through summer, followed by a generous harvest of oval yellow-green fruits in autumn and winter. These versatile fruits are superb for cocktails, cooking, garnishes, and preserves, offering a refreshing citrus kick straight from the garden.
