Nagami Kumquat - Citrus japonica ‘Nagami’
‘Nagami’ is the oval-fruited kumquat, the one eaten whole: sweet edible skin over tart flesh, in bright orange fruit about the size of an olive. Citrus japonica ‘Nagami’ builds a dense, fine-twigged, small-leaved evergreen that clips into balls, cones and standards more convincingly than any other citrus, and it holds its fruit right through winter. It is the citrus of choice where the plant has to do formal design work as well as produce.
Why Nagami Kumquat
Edible skin: The whole fruit is eaten, sweet rind and sharp flesh together, with no peeling required.
Winter fruit display: Bright orange fruit sits on the plant through the coldest months, when it is most valuable visually.
Formal clipping: Dense fine growth and small leaves make it the best citrus for topiary, standards and tight hedging.
Cold hardiness: The hardiest of the common citrus, tolerating frost that damages lemons and limes.
Container performance: Long-lived and productive in large pots, which suits courtyards and rooftop terraces.
Ideal Applications
Formal topiary: Clipped into balls or standards for entries, terraces and pool surrounds.
Productive low hedge: Planted closely along a path for a knee to waist high edible hedge.
Large containers: Grown in glazed pots where the winter fruit provides seasonal colour.
Preserving crop: Grown for marmalade, candying and liqueurs, where a concentrated winter harvest is wanted.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 1 to 1.5m
Spacing (feature/avenue): 2 to 3m
Best Planting Season: Spring and early autumn, avoiding hard frost periods in the first year
Soil & Drainage: Free draining sandy loam at pH 6 to 7, enriched with compost. Never plant into ground that stays wet after rain
Establishment Care: Keep the root zone consistently moist for the first summer with two or three deep waterings a week, as kumquats drop fruit under drought stress. Mulch to 75mm clear of the trunk and feed with citrus fertiliser in late winter and again in mid summer.
