Ornamental Oranges for ID : 180711 : AK-1:
\nTaken at a private terrace garden<\/span> in Pune, Maharashtra<\/span> on 24\/12\/2005.
\nDidn’t taste them….but I’m told they are sour.<\/p>\n

\n

I had this miniature orange plant bought from a vendor from Darjeeling. The fruit is very sour even when ripe. The young fruits are used to make achar. I am also waiting for ID.<\/p>\n

\n

Could be Fortunella japonica<\/i> (Citrus japonica<\/i> \/ Citrus fortunella<\/i>)<\/p>\n

\n

yes, these are commonly called chinese oranges<\/b> and are very bitter and sour.<\/span> but they make a wonderful bitter marmalade and pickle. They are also preserved whole in a brandy and sugar syrup to make delicious liqueur.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

I got one of these too last year and though mine is a small plant it already has about 5 fruits on it. I have been looking for it’s ID too and I thought it might be the Calamondin orange. Not sure though.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Rutaceae week: UD7 Ornamental Citrus not otherwise classified:<\/a>
\nCitrus plants are often used and cared for their Ornamental value…
\nliked these one summer in a southern California garden….
\n<\/span>no labels were present , and the day I photographed them a gardener was not around…
\nSo have labelled them DUBIA…
\n<\/i>I am submitting them just for their beauty…<\/i><\/p>\n

\n

I just found some notes… hastily jotted down these fruits were most likely Kumquats<\/span>….<\/b> so not really dubia,<\/p>\n

\n

Yes … <\/span>This seems to be the oval kumquat, <\/span>Fortunella<\/span><\/i> <\/span>margarita<\/span><\/i> (Lour.) Swingle (syn: Citrus margarita<\/i> Lour<\/span>.), Nagami kumquat<\/span>,
\n<\/b><\/span><\/span>The other type, rounded kumquat is <\/span>Fortunella<\/span><\/i> japonica, <\/i>also called marumi kumquat<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I was also thinking it to be oranges.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Thank you all for the feedback.
\nThe fruits were very tiny, approx half an inch.
\n<\/span>The pictures have been taken using a zoom.
\nThe unripe ones posted earlier in the same post were the size of a pea.<\/span><\/p>\n

Noted. citruses of same sp can be many sizes, unless its commercially grown, where nurseries do most likely mass production in tissue explants etc<\/p>\n

fruit size about .5 to .75 inche only.<\/span>

Citrus microcarpa<\/i>??? may be a bad guess<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

I think u r right …<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

Watch for the fruits and then decide.<\/p>\n

\n

Possibly Citrus Aurantium<\/i>.
\nKindly go through the link http:\/\/www.motherherbs.com\/citrus-aurantium.html<\/span><\/a>
\nAt first I thought it may be pomelo, but pomelo flowers have only 4 petals (hope petals is the right term).<\/p>\n

\n

I agree with whoever said that to wait till the fruits appear… watch’em mature and then open up one, if its your own tree or your study tree.<\/p>\n

\n

It is\u00a0Citrus japonica<\/em>\u00a0Thunb.<\/u><\/a>\u00a0as per images and details herein.<\/p>\n

Fruit size when mature ?<\/p>\n

\n
\n

I found only the flowers and green fruits during our short stay at Corbett. No idea about the size of the ripe ones. It was a small plant, barely 2-3 feet. Not a tree.<\/p>\n

\n

It is\u00a0Citrus japonica<\/em>\u00a0Thunb.<\/u><\/a> as per images and details herein.<\/p>\n

\n

But there is a difference in both the flowers, these and the ones seen in Delhi.
\nBoth identified as the same Species.<\/span><\/p>\n

no.. Idea… but the flowers and the peculiar leaves just made me think if it was a Rutaceae<\/i> member.<\/p>\n

\n

May be some Citrus<\/em> species<\/p>\n

\n

Citrus mitis<\/em>….. Calamondin orange<\/strong> or Hazara…..<\/strong><\/p>\n
