KUMQUAT & LIMEQUAT Tree Care - Ep. 337

We've been planting a number of citrus in containers around the in-process-of-renovating Meadow House ‪@FlockFingerLakes‬ and we're continuing with that by adding a kumquat and limequat.

I have a flying dragon. The fruit has a very intense perfume fragrance, and it tastes like a slightly sweet lemon. The skin is soft like a peach. Overall, It’s a very odd looking shrub.

KUMQUAT tree is the most famous tree in CORFU, an island in Greece. The inhabitants of this island make a kumquat drink. Tourist buy this famous drink. It is a sweet drink, liqueur

[@ceskyvlk8469]

i would like to try it one day

[@madisoncitrusnursery]

Great video, thanks for featuring kumquats. They are a very under utilized fruit that is a really productive growing in containers!

[@judymckerrow6720]

Thank you Ms. Summer. Hopefully you’ll be enjoying the fruits of your labor soon. 🌺💚🙃

I'm making preserved lemons with limquats - a lot of salt and they last for years in a jar. I make them the same way that preserved lemons are made in North Africa.

[@judymckerrow6720]

I think that you need to add an atrium on the community house ? 🌺💚🙃

[@Limequat]

Very helpful video, thank you.

[@annsosie1515]

Fun idea to include citrus trees in your plant menagerie 🍋

[@hanzifaction]

Limequat is new that’s a cool variety

[@deborahmcsweeney3349]

I'm growing both. I got lime quats this year. I also have pink lemons, variegated. Unfortunately when I bring them in during winter the lemons are scale magnets! The little limes were very strong! Very nice!

[@summerrayneoakes]

I am concerned about scale and mealybugs. I'm thinking these plants will have to get their own quarantine room!

[@deborahmcsweeney3349]

@@summerrayneoakes I kept mine in a back room away from most of my plants! Lol

[@janinawaz4596]

Kyumquats are delicious when ripe. Underripe kumquats from the grocery are meh.

[@DragonflyenAmber]

ok now I know what my new plants will be for next year. Limequats, Kumquats and Flying Dragons!

[@GlasshouseandGarden]

Two fantastic types of plant but the first one doesn’t look like it was particularly well grown, with the graft being so disjointed and the top leader going to the right so much 🤔
