The Calamansi plant (Citrus × microcarpa), also known as Calamondin or Philippine lime, is a delightful compact citrus tree that's both beautiful and bountiful! This evergreen shrub or small tree boasts glossy, dark green leaves, fragrant white flowers, and clusters of small, round fruits (about golf-ball size) that ripen from green to bright orange. The thin, edible peel is sweetly aromatic, while the juicy pulp delivers a tangy, sour kick — like a cross between a lime and a mandarin. Perfect for pots, patios, balconies, or sunny indoor spots, it adds tropical charm and homegrown flavor to any space.
