My Edibles: Kumquat Trees NSW

Kumquat - Nagami (Grafted)

Comments: -

Growing beautifully, I have my first crop of kumquats this year and I can't wait for the sensational sweet and lively sour little fruits - yummy.  A gorgeous tree which is highly ornamental - the main problem I have is that it looks so beautiful in fruit I am reluctant to strip the tree of its bright orange fruit.

I like how well the fruit keeps on this tree. I could have harvested all the fruit at once in June. Instead, I alternate between this and my other kumquat and munch on a fruit every other day.

Fruit taste like grapefruit/lemon inside with very sweet skin. More seeds than I was expecting.

Hardy and delicious

Kumquat - Variegated

Affected a lot by scale. Looks pretty but has extremely tart fruit. I prefer other varieties like Nagami to eat. I think I will pull it out and try another type.
