Kamquat Lemon Plant for Home Gardening

Plant Characteristics and Features

• Variety: Kumquat (Kamquat), a unique and highly prized citrus variety known for its tangy-sweet fruit with a sweet, edible rind and tart pulp.
• Form: A compact, bushy specimen, making it an excellent choice for growing in pots or containers on balconies, terraces, or in small gardens.
• Foliage: Features glossy green, evergreen leaves and produces showy, sweetly fragrant white blossoms.
• Fruiting: The tree is self-fertile, meaning you only need one plant to produce fruit. Grafted plants generally begin to bear fruit within 2 to 3 years.
• Benefit: The fruit is high in Vitamin C and perfect for eating fresh, making marmalade, or adding to culinary dishes.

Sunlight and Water Requirements

• Sunlight Needs: The Kamquat plant thrives in Full Sun. Place it in a location where it can receive a minimum of 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal flowering and fruit production. It can tolerate partial shade.
• Watering: Water moderately and consistently. Allow the top 1 to 2 inches of soil to dry out completely between waterings. It is crucial to ensure excellent drainage, as the plant cannot tolerate waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during the cooler winter months.

Essential Care and Maintenance

• Soil: Plant in a rich, well-draining soil mix that is slightly acidic (pH 5.5 to 6.5) to promote healthy growth.
• Fertilisation: Apply a balanced, organic fertilizer specifically formulated for citrus plants monthly during the active growing season (spring and summer).
• Pruning: Light pruning is generally only necessary to maintain the desired shape of the plant or to remove any dead or overcrowded branches. Pruning is best done after the fruit has been harvested.
• Grafting Tip: If your plant is grafted, regularly check for and remove any unwanted shoots or 'suckers' that grow from the rootstock below the graft union.
