Mandarin, Chinese Honey Orange, Tangerine 'Ponkan' (Citrus reticulata)
Ponkan Tangerine almost 3ft grafted tree.
The ‘Ponkan’ Tangerine is one of the oldest mandarin tangerines and remains one of the most popular varieties for the many attributes it brings to the landscape. Just for starters, when this citrus tree sets its blooms it attracts the North American Giant Swallowtail butterfly which uses it and other citrus trees for food in the larval stage. This upright, vigorous growing tree is one of the best for producing delectable fruit with very little seeds that are extremely easy to peel. ‘Ponkan’ is considered an alternate bearer, which means, every other year it produces plentiful amounts of fruit. Add some exotic flavor to your landscape!
