Mediterranean Fruit Collection

Bring the Flavours of the Mediterranean Home
Add colour, fragrance, and fresh fruit to your garden or conservatory with this Mediterranean Fruit Tree Collection. This patio-ready set features four popular varieties: Tahiti Lime, Calamondin Orange, Lemon Tree, and Green Fig. Each plant arrives potted with its own contemporary grey patio pot—perfect for creating an instant Mediterranean oasis.

What’s Included?

• Tahiti Lime: Seedless limes produced in abundance; left on the tree, they eventually turn yellow.
• Calamondin Orange: Compact tree with small, juicy fruits—initially bitter but finishing sweet.
• Lemon Tree: Classic citrus tree; fruits can take up to a year to ripen but are well worth the wait.
• Green Fig: Hardy variety yielding sweet, juicy figs from August to September.
• 4 Grey Patio Pots: Sleek and durable pots make it easy to display your collection straight away.

Cultivation & Care Guide

• Sunlight: All varieties prefer a sunny spot—ideal for patios in summer. Move citrus trees indoors (conservatory or heated greenhouse) during colder months.
• Soil: Use well-drained compost. Citrus prefers slightly acidic soil; figs thrive in loamy or sandy soil.
• Watering: Keep soil moist but not waterlogged. Allow surface to dry slightly between waterings.
• Feeding: Feed citrus trees monthly with citrus fertiliser during growing season (March–September). Figs benefit from a balanced feed in spring.
• Pruning: Prune fig trees in late winter to maintain shape. Remove dead or damaged branches from citrus as needed.
• Pest & Disease: Watch for aphids or scale insects on citrus; figs are generally robust but benefit from good air circulation.

Design Ideas & Companion Plants

• Create a Mediterranean-themed patio by grouping these trees with lavender, rosemary, or olive trees—all sharing similar sun requirements.
• Citrus trees add year-round greenery; figs can be trained against a sunny wall as an edible focal point.
• Pots allow easy relocation—move indoors over winter to protect from frost and enjoy fragrant blossoms inside.

FAQs

• When is the best time to plant these trees?
  You can plant potted fruit trees at any time of year. For best results, plant in spring after the last frost.
• How fast will the trees grow and bear fruit?
  Citrus may take up to a year to ripen fruit; figs typically produce crops from their second season onwards (August–September).
• Do I need a greenhouse?
  No greenhouse is required—just move citrus indoors over winter. Figs are hardy outdoors in most UK gardens if protected from severe frost.
