OK, many forum members acquired a mandared tree this year. How are your plants doing?

My opinion is that the mandared is not exactly suitable as a pot plant. It grows too vigorous and new shoots grow very large with large leaves.

What are your findings?

Mine didn't grow very much. You are lucky.

I had to prune it quite a bit to keep size under control!

I'd very much like to see a picture of the inside of a home grown mandared and some first hand info about their taste....

Best,

Yes, it has tendency to form long, juvenile-like twigs.
