Nucellar Аvana seedless mandarin

Important notice! Most citrus plants on the market are produced for planting in orchards in the Mediterranean countries. They have a large overall height, have high graft and are difficult to shape and support at home. Rootstocks on which they are grafted are very fast growing, which is fine for the open ground in the subtropics, but is not desirable when growing in pot in the temperate climate.

All our small citrus plants are produced specifically for the Bulgarian market and are ideally suited for home cultivation. The rootstocks cause compact growth, grafts are low and this allows making an excellent shape of the crown, to be suitable for growing in pots. The used rootstocks are trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata 'Flying Dragon') and Volkamer lemon, Citrus volkameriana. Trifoliate orange is frost-hardy to -25°C, and significantly increases the cold resistance of plants grafted on it.

 

Nucellar Аvana сeedless mandarin

Citrus deliciosa “Avana Apireno Nucellare” 62-AP-9

Avana Apireno is a variety derived from Avana's mandarin selection, but Аpireno is almost seedless, only few seeds per fruit. The plants grow slow, but compensate whit good crop.

The branches are thin, almost thornless, whit fragrant leaves. The fruit is medium sized 7cm., sphericals and flat with thin orange rind, 10 - 12 segments, juicy flesh, and a sweet, fragrant flavour.

The fruit ripens in late November-January.

 

 

 

 

As with all other Citrus plants, the mandarin is susceptible to scales and spider mites and needs to be sprayed twice a year.

In winter it will need a cool place with temperatures 0-10 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is higher, the leaves usually fall off. In summer it needs to be outside and abundantly watered.
