Super Nova Mandarin Tree
Grow Your Own Super Sweet Mandarins!
It's not often that you get a fruit named after an exploding star, but when the flavor is as spectacular as the new Super Nova Mandarin (Citrus reticulate Blanco 'SuperNova') the name fits perfectly!
This blazing orange fruit is new on the market in the last couple of years, but it's been around for a while. (It's funny how people say something is an 'overnight success' when it was really years in the making!) It was first developed in 1966 in Florida, then expanded its reach in Southern California and then really took off in Northern California. It now is poised to rival some other well-known mandarins, like Cuties and Halos.
But you don't have to wait until that happens! You can have your own tree producing for you right now so that when your neighbors are paying big bucks for a bag from the local specialty market you will just be picking them fresh from your backyard!
These self-pollinating gems bear fruit that is completely seedless and packed with super sweet juicy flavor.
So, if you live in a citrusy climate, you will definitely want to add a beautiful Super Nova to your garden this year. Order yours today!
- Deliciously sweet, seedless fruit
- Perfect for small gardens and containers
- Self-pollinating
- Rich mandarin flavor
