Kumquat - Nagami

A Small Fruit with Big Flavor


The Nagami Kumquat is a small, fruit-bearing evergreen tree. Plant one near your house so you don’t miss a moment of its lovely flowers or striking fruit. They also do well as a container planting so they can easily be moved indoors in inclement weather.


Your Nagami Kumquat is perhaps the most popular Kumquat variety grown in the United States, and its outstanding feature is of course the fruit itself. There’s nothing that tastes quite like it. The oval, orange-colored fruit is about an inch in diameter and commonly eaten whole.


Biting into the Kumquat, the sweet citrus flavor of the peel is sure to delight your senses, but is nothing compared to the tart explosion of flavor that follows when your taste buds encounter the juicy interior. Candied, cooked, canned or eaten whole, Kumquats are a tasty, not-to-be-missed treat in any form!


Your Nagami Kumquat is a dwarf, growing to about 10 feet tall with a shrub-like appearance but quite similar to an orange tree. This Nagami is somewhat frost hardy, able to survive some cold temperatures for short periods of time.


The 5-peteled, white flowers that appear in the spring have a rich, waxy appearance and are delightfully fragrant. You can depend on their charming allure to draw pollinators to your yard. The 3-inch, deep green oval leaves provide a vibrant, healthy appearance to your tree year-round, even when not in bloom or fruit.


Kumquates are low in calories but a rich source of anti-oxidants, minerals, vitamins and fiber. Growing your own Kumquat, especially on a plant that is both adaptable and lovely, is an obvious choice over the usual fruit-bearing trees commonly available for your yard.

Quick Overview

The Nagami Kumquat is the most widely available kumquat in North America, and is usually eaten whole, including the sweet fleshy rind. It has an olive size and shape, and the fruit is bright orange. Its oval fruit is 3/4" to 1" in diameter and between 1" to 2" long. The tartness of the fruit makes it great for use in cooking, or for marmalades and jellies. Nagami flowers best in areas with warm summers. The fruit ripens in late winter or early spring. Nagami Kumquat tree is shrub-like and is similar to an orange tree in appearance. It is a very prolific producer and is considered a remarkable ornamental because of the dark green leaves and brilliant orange fruit. In the warmer climates, the fruit lasts for several months on the tree. When planted in the yard, or in a larger pot, it will do very well. This Kumquat can withstand temperatures as low as 28 degrees and requires about the same care as other citrus. The word Kumquat comes from the Cantonese, meaning 'golden orange'.
