Wicked, wide, and hooked thorns are so scary that they're beautiful. White fragrant flowers bloom in early summer and trifoliate green leaves turn various oranges in fall. Naked, its thorny green form is visually exciting and sculptural. Usually fruits by its 12th year or luckily before. The somewhat smaller than golf ball sized yellow-orange fruits taste a little bitter, and somewhere between a lemon and a grapefruit. Europeans have used it dried or candied, the American colonists used it for its pectin, and in China, from whence it hails, it has been used medicinally for at least a few thousand years.

Mature size: to 8 x 8 feet in the ground. Smaller and excellent in a pot for a very long time.

Carefully packed for each plant

Once your order is ready, we bring the plants from our greenhouses into a holding area. Each plant is wrapped by hand and, when needed, staked to protect tender stems. Because our inventory is so diverse, we adjust the packing method for each plant based on its size, type, and stage of growth.

We reuse clean paper and plastic packing materials whenever practical. It is easier on the planet and helps keep shipping costs down for you, too.

Choose your Monday ship date

At checkout, choose from the available Monday ship dates. We ship with UPS from Monmouth, Oregon, and you will receive an email with tracking information when your shipment is prepared or enters the UPS system.

Arrival times vary by destination and weather, so we cannot guarantee a specific delivery date or time.
