• Features distinctive blood-red flesh in the fruit due to anthocyanin pigments that develop in cooler night temperatures.
• Grows to approximately 2-3 metres in containers, significantly smaller than standard citrus trees while maintaining full-sized fruit production.
• Beloved by gardeners for its dual-purpose appeal, providing both ornamental beauty with fragrant flowers and delicious homegrown citrus fruit.
• Self-pollinating variety that doesn't require a second tree to produce fruit, making it ideal for single-tree plantings.

• Harvest fruit when fully coloured in winter, and protect from frost during cold snaps.

• Provide full sun exposure for at least 6-8 hours daily to ensure proper fruit development and tree health.
• Water deeply but infrequently, allowing soil to dry slightly between waterings, especially during cooler months.
• Maintain humidity around potted plants by placing on gravel trays filled with water during hot, dry periods.
• Protect from frost and strong winds, moving containers to sheltered positions when temperatures drop below 5°C.
• Prune lightly in late winter to maintain shape and remove dead or crossing branches before spring growth begins.

• Scale insects can attach to stems and leaves, causing yellowing and sticky honeydew. Treat with horticultural oil or insecticidal soap applied weekly until cleared.
• Citrus canker appears as raised, corky lesions on fruit and leaves. Remove affected parts immediately and improve air circulation around the plant.
• Root rot from overwatering causes yellowing leaves and stunted growth. Reduce watering frequency and ensure excellent drainage in pots.
• Aphids cluster on new growth, causing leaf curl and sooty mould. Spray off with water or apply neem oil every few days until controlled.
