Bonsai and Pre-Bonsai Citrus Kumquat (Orange)

•  Location: Prefers a sunny location throughout the year. They resist frost well, although it is advisable to protect them from temperatures below -2ºC.
• Irrigation: Abundantly in summer and moderately in winter. During flowering, care must be taken not to wet the flowers.
• Curiosities: During twilight is when its flower, the orange blossom, gives off its pleasant smell, since its pollinating insects are active at that time of day. Good example of symbiosis.
• Family : Rutaceae
• Subscription: It is done from Spring to Autumn, it is not recommended to pay during flowering and it is necessary to enhance the fertilizer during fruiting.
• Transplant: It is recommended every 2 years, at the end of winter, beginning of spring
• Picking will be done when the stem has reached 4 to 6 pairs of leaves
• Wiring: It should be done throughout the year, but be careful in spring, when growth is very fast.

Curiosities: We can help its fruiting by intercropping different species of orange trees and pollinating manually: applying pollen from a flower to the stigma.

*Observations: The shape and measurements of the bonsai are approximate. The color and shape of the pot may vary from the photo. Remember that a bonsai is a living being, so the images that appear are representative.
