Key Lime-Quat

Key-Quat

The Key-Quat is a unique hybrid between the Key lime and the kumquat, offering a delightful blend of tart and tangy flavors. The small, oval-shaped fruit features a thin, edible skin and a juicy, slightly sweet pulp, making it perfect for snacking or using in recipes where you want a burst of citrus without the typical acidity of a lime. It’s especially popular for making marmalades, cocktails, or even using whole in savory dishes.

Citrus trees are perfect for container gardening, making them an excellent choice for adding a tropical touch to your patio during the summer. Not only do they bring vibrant color and fresh greenery, but they also reward you with homegrown fruit.

This tropical plant is not hardy to our area (Zone 7a) and must be brought inside during the winter. Bring your citrus tree in before temperatures drop below 40°.
