- This Nagami Kumquat tree is the oldest living specimen we have at Logee's Greenhouses. While we don't know its exact age, it is believed to have been about sixty years old when it first arrived at Logee's in the early 1930's - which means it first sprouted from a kumquat seed around the time of the U.S. Civil War! Since then, six other varieties of citrus have been grafted onto it so that it now produces seven different types of citrus at the same time. The different citrus varieties mentioned in this video are listed below, along with their time stamp in the video and the URL where you can learn more about them at the Logee's retail website:

I'm always surprised by how few views the Logee videos have. Byron's multi-generational knowledge is rare on this platform, and it's always so neat to hear him give tours of different plants and their history. I'm grateful these types of video's exist because you don't exactly find this type of information on wiki or in a textbook. Keep up the great video's Logee's!
Thank you! :)
What an amazing tree with such a variety of fruits. I must say the caretakers at Logees are doing a great job to keep this tree vigrous and fruiting after all these years :)
Thank you! :)
An amazing plant with an incredible history.
Super cool! I have the meiwa & calamondin but want ALL of them... sort of addicted now.
So interesting and educational! I had no idea different types of citrus fruits can grow in one tree. What a history. I have a miniature calamansi tree, love it.
My mouth starts watering looking at all these kumquats 🤤🤤

Someone in my elementary school had a Nagami kumquat in their front yard in Daytona Beach, Florida. It was about 60 feet high.
What a beautiful and interesting tree! Thank you for sharing!
You're welcome - thanks for watching! :)
This is such a piece of art work. Recently I have bought 2 Meiwa Kumquats and I have to say that it is the most delicious Rock sugar sweet kumquat I have ever eaten. The trees can be expensive but all worth it. I’m going to search for the next sweet kumquat which your video is so helpful! Thanks for sharing. My next search would be the Changshou Kumquat! Your tree is absolutely amazing!

Interesting video. Citrus are almost impossible to grow here in Florida with the various viruses, diseases, insects, etc. it is a shame, I have many fond memories of the smell of citrus blooming in the spring and enjoying the fruit later in the year.
Thanks so much for this informative video.
I purchased a Meiwa Kumquat in Spring 2020. Placed it in the ground. Got couple fruits this year and shortly after fruiting the leaves fell off and branches all turned brown ( toast).
I live in Central FL zone 9b.
I am truly trying to find out why my tree died.
Any possible insights?
So this is veri smoth citrus even by eye :oo
❤
😮♥️👍
