mandarine imperial (Grafted) ^10/10

Comments: -

Very easy to look after. Nice tree. Fruits used to be very sour until I was told to fix the problem by adding some lime and epsom salt. I have been doing it very year after that. I also found that the tree loves water when fruiting. Fruits grow to certain size then the skin continue to grow but not the inside so the fruits is not firm to touch but  softer,  I know it is time to pick the fruits.

Normally, this tree fruits every second year, last year it had a good crop and it looks like the same as last year. Thanks to the rain we have had lately.
