What the Pixie Mandarin (Citrus reticulata \’Pixie’) lacks in size, it makes up for in sweet, indulgent flavor. These tiny little fruits are ever-so-popular. Beloved by kids, adults also love their sweet, juicy goodness.
Growers certainly appreciate their tropical look on their properties. The dark, leathery green leaves and upright foliage of this exquisite Mandarin variety give it a rain-forest vibe that many growers and passersby appreciate.
The Pixie Mandarin has a mild, sweet taste with lots of juice and deep orange flesh. The Pixie Mandarin is a citrus fruit that is completely seedless, making it even more desirable to both kids and foodies in general.
Well-drained soil is required for the Pixie Mandarin Tree. It requires moderate moisture to maintain its health and ensure a bountiful harvest. Grow the Pixie in the ground if you live in Zones 9-10, or cultivate it in a container in Zones 4-10.
The Pixie is a delight for kids, since it’s both kid-sized and easy to peel, making it a snack they can easily serve themselves. Pack them in lunchboxes, keep them in the counter for healthy snacking for the whole family, or add them to fruit salads and platters. Pixies, like all citrus fruits, are a great source of vitamin C, known for its antioxidant and immune-boosting properties.
You can prune your Pixie Mandarin Tree to any size, which makes it an ideal container plant. Just make sure it gets six hours of sun outdoors each day during warm weather, and protect it during cold weather by bringing it indoors.
