Description:
Citrus 'Ambersweet' is a tasty complex hybrid that is half sweet orange, three eighths tangerine, and one eighth grapefruit! Fruit are sweet with a beautiful orange colour to the skin and flesh. They are easy to peel and usually seedless but can sometimes have seeds especially if grown in mixed plantings with cross pollination. All of our citrus are grafted onto C-35 citrange, trifoliate orange, or other semi-dwarfing rootstock which confer good hardiness and production while reducing overall tree size.
