Mandarin

Mandarin trees are a fabulous addition to any garden. We offer a good selection of varieties, delicious to eat straight from the tree.

Many are almost seedless and often easy to peel. They fruit frequently throughout the season. Perfect for your backyard or balcony!

The Afourer Mandarin has a smooth, thin rind which is easy to peel. It is sweet, rich in flavour and very juicy.

The Clementine Mandarin is known for its sweet and seedless segments This mandarin has as smooth, deep orange, glossy skin that is easy to peel. It is sometimes mistaken for a Tangerine, as they look very similar.

The Imperial Mandarin is an Australian variety and the earliest fruiting of the mandarins. It is very popular as it is easy to peel, has few seeds and has a good balance of sweet and juicy.

The Ellendale Mandarin is a medium to large fruit that is moderately seedy, with bright orange skin. Very juicy with a rich flavour. Relatively easy to peel once mature.

The Emperor Mandarin is a pale orange, loose skinned mandarin that is easy to peel. Fantastic flavour but can be prone to drying out if harvest is delayed. Most popular mid-season variety and produces masses of fruit!

The Page Mandarin has sweet and juicy flesh, with almost no seeds. The fruit resembles a small Orange, with deep orange skin, which is difficult to peel. Best to cut into quarters and eat like an Orange.

Citrus Fruit Salad Trees are suitable for all Australian climates, except Alpine regions. See Climate Map above for more details.

Citrus Fruit Salad Trees will grow to 2.5m high x 2m wide in the ground. In a pot, they will grow to about 2/3 that size depending on the size of the pot.

Note: The size of your tree is determined by many factors including soil type, sunlight, nutrition availability and overall health.

There are 2 special care requirements for our trees.
1. Keep the tree balanced! Check your tree regularly and prune back any branches that are outgrowing the others.
2. Remove Rootstock. Each fruit will be marked with white paint when you receive your tree. If you see any other growth coming from the tree trunk, remove this as this is rootstock growth.

All Citrus Fruit Salad Trees can be espaliered. This method saves space and provides extra support for heavy cropping. Click HERE to watch our video on espaliering.

All Fruit Salad Trees can be planted anytime of year. Order and plant your tree today to enjoy your home grown fruit sooner!

Citrus Fruit Salad Trees will begin fruiting within the first 12 months. You may need to remove some of the first fruits if the branch is not yet large enough to hold the weight of the fruit.

Your trees will be shipped through Australia Parcel Post including tracking. Express shipping is available for urgent delivery. Select the Express post option during checkout.
