Myrtle Leaf Orange Tree (Citrus myrtifolia)

This sour orange is one of the best citrus plants for containers because of its compact growing habit and hearty root structure. With densely foliated, myrtle-like leaves, it produces sweetly fragrant, white flowers in spring that are followed by small, decorative fruit that ripen around the holidays and hold onto the plant for months. Pruning this enduring grower produces a well-shaped bush. Available in a 2.5" pot.
