xCitrofortunella ‘Eustis’ is a smaller, quite ornamental tree with dense branching and foliage. It produces abundant, small, greenish yellow fruits. The skin tastes sweet but the flesh tastes sour sweet similar to limes. Limequats are hardier than limes and are a cross between limes and kumquats known as a limequat. 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.
