The end of winter is approaching, the shop is emptying out and many varieties are sold out.
From April and May we will be restocking the classics such as Meyer Lemon, Yuzu Nr3, Ichang Lemon, Citrangequat Thomasville and Sudachi. Rarities such as Citradia, Kabosu, Rugueux and Ichang Lemon will be back, but only in very limited quantities.
And we are also going to introduce new resistant varieties, some of them very original.
They will appear in the Shop from March, but we need to acclimatise them and they will be on sale online only a few months later. Those who will visit us at Monte Carasso will be able to see and buy them before anyone else.
The list follows…<\/p>\n\n

Corsican Mountain Orange<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"
A semi-sanguine orange selected by INRA Corsica, well adapted to the mountain climate.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
The tree can withstand temperatures as low as -12C, and oranges can be harvested as early as December.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Fragola orange tree<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"
A slightly pink orange, whose juice has a strawberry flavour, sometimes light, sometimes more pronounced.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
The tree is resistant to -12C and harvesting takes place from December to February.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Tangelo Ambersweet<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"
An American hybrid of Mandarin, Orange and Tangelo Orlando. The pear-shaped fruit can be harvested as early as October or November, but can remain on the tree until January, becoming very sweet when fully ripe.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
The tree is very productive but remains small and can be adapted to pot growing. Hardy to -12 degrees, mature and in protected locations.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Pomelo Marumero<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"
A sweet Pomelo, hybridized with a mandarin tree. Also known as Bloomsweet and Kinkonji. The fruit is sweet and tangy, with almost no trace of bitterness.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
The tree is resistant to -12 degrees and its leaves are highly aromatic.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Honghe Papeda<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"
A protected semi-wild species from the Yunan mountains in southern China. The fruit is large (600gr) with giant vesicles (1cm), acidic and aromatic, like a mixture of grapefruit and yuzu. Zest and albedo are also loaded with fragrance. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
The tree can reach 10 metres in height in China, where it grows at altitudes between 1700 and 2000 metres. Its distinctive foliage, with a stalk larger than the leaf itself, is used in traditional local medicine. Withstands temperatures down to -12 degrees.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Bignette lemon tree (from Menton)<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"
The least acidic and sweetest of the famous Menton lemons (IGP). Harvesting can start as early as October, but can be staggered until January. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
The tree is fairly compact and has good resistance to cold for a lemon tree (-8 degrees). It remains small if kept in a pot.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Lemon tree Pavlovo<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"
Pavlovo is a 4-season lemon tree from Russia, not very vigorous but productive, with very good lemons. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
It is suitable for pot growing, but not only. It is the only lemon tree that can be kept in a house in winter behind a window or in a veranda. While all citrus fruits are extremely sensitive to temperature shocks in winter, Pavlovo has no problem withstanding them. Outdoors, only resistant to -6 degrees.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Eremorange<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"
One of the few coldhardy finger lemons, the Eremorange is even very hardy (-15 degrees). The fruit is small and round, not the typical finger lime shape, but the vesicles are similar, like tiny aromatic beads. Sought-after for high-end cuisine and exceptional in jams.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
The tree is vigorous and productive, with atypical foliage reminiscent of the olive tree.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
