I am not sure if I do like it yet, it seems a bit temperamental, so I have moved it to get more sun. Mainly pruning off diebacks.

Dwarf Orange - Cara Cara

I have had one fruiting for 4 years. Ripens at the same time as my Washington Navel. Colours up well and has pink flesh with rapberry flavour. Worth owning!

Unfortunately it died!  Looked great on arrival, but seemd to get root rot after a couple of months and went slowly downhill till it died.  Very sad, but we want to try again soon!
