★★★★Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd
Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd. De plant kwam een beetje beschadigd aan. Door dat de bladeren op een onjuiste manier in de doos waren gestopt. Verder is het een mooie plant.
Ik ben blij verrast! Een mooie uitziende plant en goed verpakt ontvangen. Bij de mededeling vroeg ik of zij wilde kijken naar een rechtopstaande plant en als het kan iets groter dan aangegeven maat. Daar heeft de kweker ook goed...

All about
The Citrus tree dossier
Citrus
Citrus trees originate from Southeast Asia and conquered the world via the Mediterranean Sea. Orange, lemon and mandarin bring the Mediterranean summer to your patio with their shiny leaves, fragrant blossoms and colorful fruits.
A citrus tree is a real orangery plant: outside in the sun in the summer, cool and light inside in the winter.

Placement and light
Place a citrus tree outside from May to October in a warm, sunny and sheltered spot, preferably against a south wall. Sun is the driving force behind blossoms and fruits.
Citrus is not winter hardy: hibernate it in a cool and light place, ideally between 5 and 12 degrees, for example in a conservatory, greenhouse or bright garage. A warm living room is unsuitable in winter.
Water and feeding
Water regularly in summer, as soon as the top few inches of soil are dry; on hot days this can be daily. Preferably use rainwater and ensure perfect drainage. During winter dormancy the tree drinks little.
Provide special citrus food every two weeks from March to October; it contains the extra iron and magnesium that citrus needs.
Is something wrong with your Citrus tree?
Yellow leaves in citrus often indicate an iron deficiency or soil that is too wet. Leaf fall in winter usually means: overwintering too warm and too dark. Falling fruits are partly natural; the tree keeps what it can bear. Check for scale and mealybugs, especially indoors.
Repot a citrus tree in early spring, every two to three years. Use special citrus or Mediterranean potting soil with excellent drainage and a pot with ample water drainage. Don't choose the pot too large; citrus blooms better with the roots slightly tighter.
Toxic to pets?
Citrus leaves and peels contain essential oils that are mildly toxic to cats and dogs. Fortunately, the smell deters most animals. Serious poisoning is rare, but do not allow pets to chew leaves or fruits.
A citrus tree grows moderately and is mainly concerned with flowering and setting fruit: with the right sun and nutrition you can expect blossoms and fruits every year. Prune lightly in the spring for a beautiful, open crown.
Yes, calamondin fruits are edible, but the flesh is sour. The peel, by contrast, is a little sweeter. They are often used in marmalade, drinks or as a substitute for lime.
Is the calamondin hardy?
No, the calamondin isn't hardy. Bring it indoors before the first night frost and overwinter it in a bright spot at around 5 to 12 °C. From May to October it can stand outside in a sheltered, sunny spot.
Is the calamondin toxic to cats and dogs?
Citrus plants are listed by the ASPCA as toxic to cats and dogs. The essential oils in the leaves and peel can cause stomach and bowel upsets if eaten. So keep the plant out of reach of pets.
Where should you place a calamondin?
Give the calamondin as sunny a spot as possible. In summer it prefers to be outside on a sheltered patio, in winter indoors in a bright, cool spot. A warm living room in winter is less suitable, because it will often drop leaves there.
How big does a calamondin get?
In a pot the calamondin stays a compact little tree that takes pruning well. At XXLplant you buy it from 40 to 80 cm tall, measured including the nursery pot. A light prune in spring keeps the crown full and rounded.
How often should you water a calamondin?
Keep the soil lightly moist and let the top dry out a little in between. Preferably use rainwater or soft water and avoid waterlogged roots. In winter, in a cool spot, it needs noticeably less water.
