I saw a tree at a nursery/grower and was told it was a mandarinquat. I was sceptical because I saw variegation on it, but bought it anyways.
I assumed it might be a centennial variegated kumquat, however I read on various websites that centennial variegated kumquat trees are thornless. This tree has several small thorns. I have a small variegated kumquat tree and it is completely thornless. Any confirmations?
Here are some pictures:
