Kumquat Fruit 

At the top of my house planted some Kumquat tree in the pots. The Kumquat tree is easy to flowering, if you always do to watering and fertilization. To more produce of fruit is better to planted in the land, not in the pots. For my house is a limited area, must be planted in pots at the top of may house. You can see  many fruit at the tree. I take the picture in this morning when seeing the tree. Please enjoy to see the pictures at the page. The fruit closely resembles that of the orange (Citrus Sinensis), but is much smaller, being approximately the size and shape of an olive. The English name " Kumquat " derives from the Cantonese pronunciation " Gam gwat".
