Satsuma Mandarin Orange Tree Terra Cotta
Satsuma mandarin orange is like candy on a tree. We took one of our favorite mandarin orange varieties and planted it in a terra cotta pot topped with decorative green moss, just right for gift giving. This mandarin orange produces sweet, seedless fruit with delicate flavor that ripens around Christmas time. Fruit is great eaten fresh, added to fruit salads, or even eaten as dessert. The tree only gets to about 8'to 10', but can be easily managed in a container with clipping, kept to any desired shape. As an added benefit, the fruit keeps well on the tree. Makes a great gift. Shipped as a potted tree in its original soil and container to ensure a healthier start when planted in yard or garden. Can not ship citrus trees to TX, AZ, or FL.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you really ship citrus trees this time of the year?
Since we ship all of our trees potted in soil, yes we are able to offer shipment year round. We monitor weather.com, and hold shipment temporarily if weather is too extreme. We add insulation to the trees as weather dictates, packaging each carefully by hand to ensure the best possible tree when it arrives at your home.
We insulate the trees prior to shipping if necessary, and then carefully box them, adding additional protective measures to absorb excessive vibration or movement while in transit. The root balls are then bagged to hold in moisture while the trees are on their way, with an additional card board collar placed over the tree to provide additional protection from the elements. Some leaf drop may occur, but the tree, once moved to a proper and safe location should re-foliate very quickly.
