The Natsumikan is a natural hybrid of pummelo (Citrus maxima) and mandarin orange (Citrus reticulata).
The fruit is large (400gr+), slightly flattened and rough-skinned, and juicy when ripe.
This is the Japanese summer grapefruit, picked in April and May for fresh eating.
Kept for a few weeks, it gains even more flavor.
In January and February, it can also be squeezed like a lime.
The juice and especially the aromatic rind (either green or orange when ripe) are used in cooking and jams.
The tree is very productive and vigorous, with no thorns.
