Citrus kucle 'Oceana' 14cm

The 'Kucle', also known as Kucli, or Kumquatine, is the result of cross-breeding between Fortunella margarita (kumquat) and Citrus clementina (clementine). (Satsuma mandarin and a Meiwa kumquat).

This vigorous and highly decorative bush offers an abundance of orange fruits resembling kumquats, slightly larger than the latter, with a deliciously tangy flavour and a hint of clementine aftertaste. Like kumquats, it is consumed with the skin.

Resistant to cold temperatures up to -4°C (24.8°F), it can be grown in open ground only in regions with very mild climates; elsewhere, it is preferably cultivated in a large container, overwintered in a frost-free greenhouse or conservatory.
