The Burgess Scarlet Mandarin Tree is a standout citrus variety that delivers both visual delight and delicious flavour. Its medium-sized fruit ripens to a bold scarlet-orange hue—adding a splash of colour to your garden, patio, or fruit bowl. With juicy flesh and a perfect balance of sweetness and gentle acidity, it’s a favourite snack that’s as beautiful as it is tasty.
The thin, easy-to-peel skin separates cleanly, making this mandarin perfect for lunchboxes, outdoor snacking, or just a tidy treat at home. Thanks to its bushy growth habit and moderate size, it thrives in a container and makes a wonderful addition to small garden spaces or sunny balconies.
This tree produces abundantly every second year and flourishes best in northern parts of New Zealand, where the climate suits its cheerful temperament. When the fruit reaches its vibrant hue and soft feel, it’s time to pick, share, and enjoy.
