Description

Dekopon Mandarin Tree (Citrus 'Shiranui') is a premium evergreen citrus tree celebrated for its exceptionally sweet, juicy fruit and distinctive top-knot shape. Large, bright orange mandarins develop a thick yet easy-to-peel rind, revealing tender, richly flavored segments with very few seeds. The taste combines intense sweetness with gentle acidity, making this Japanese-developed citrus especially enjoyable for fresh eating. Glossy dark green leaves and fragrant white spring blossoms add year-round ornamental appeal. This self-fertile tree can produce fruit without a second pollinator and thrives in full sun with regular watering and well-drained soil. Suitable for sunny California gardens and large containers, Dekopon offers a delicious late-winter harvest.
