Calamondin
Citrus madurensis is an acid fruit that is most commonly grown
in
the Philippine Islands although it is probably of Chinese origin. It is
believed to be a natural
hybrid, with kumquat in the parentage. In the Philippines it is
sometimes called calamonding or
calamansi. Here in the United States it is primarily planted as an
ornamental, either growing in
the
ground or in a container. Calamondin is cold-resistant. The tree form
is upright and columnar,
and
the leaves are small and dense giving the tree a fine textural
appearance. The fruits are
very small, round, and orange at full maturity. The orange flesh is
acidic, juicy, and contains a
few
seeds. Calamondin trees flower and set fruit intermittently throughout
the year, adding to
the
decorative appeal of these trees. A variegated form, with marbled
leaves and faintly-striped
fruit is sometimes
marketed under the name Peters.
