Citrus reticulata 'Clementine' - Clementin in ghiveci

Citrus reticulata 'Clementine' - a shrub whose fruit is known as Clementine, is a hybrid between a mandarin and a sweet orange, created by Clément Rodier, a famous French missionary in Algeria.

The fruit is very popular, medium-sized, sweet, and very fragrant. It is also valued for its thin peel, easy to peel, and for being seedless. Clementines are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, offering multiple health benefits. They grow well in warm areas with full sun exposure and require well-drained soil. The blossoms appear more frequently in spring, and the fruits usually ripen during winter, providing an abundant harvest. These features make them ideal for fresh consumption as well as for making juices and desserts.
