Citrus unshiu is a semi-seedless and easy-peeling citrus species, and was named after Unshu (Wenzhou), a famous production area of mandarin oranges in China, in the late Edo period of Japan. Jesuits brought the fruit from Asia to North America in the 18th century, starting groves in the Jesuit Plantation upriver from New Orleans, Louisiana. In 1878 during the Meiji period, Owari mikans were brought to the United States from the Satsuma Province in Kyushu, Japan, by the spouse of the US Minister to Japan, General Van Valkenburgh, who renamed them satsumas. Between 1908 and 1911 about a million Owari mikan trees were imported throughout the lower Gulf Coast states. The towns of Satsuma, Alabama; Satsuma, Florida; Satsuma, Texas; and Satsuma, Louisiana were named after this fruit. These pot of 2 Satsuma Mandarin starter trees are grown from seed and are currently between 3'' and 5'' in height above soil. We recommend that these little babies continue to grow indoors with UV Grow Lights for the first year, until the roots are strong enough to be introduced outdoors. Direct sunlight needs to be gradually exposed. Please Note: there is two (2) small seedlings in a single pot, to save you money. They can vary in size, but are quick growing, so even a smaller plant will be considerably larger in a couple of weeks. Our horticulturists have planted, grown and nurtured our Satsuma Mandarin trees since seed, and have cared for them for a minimum of 4 months. They are well rooted, healthy, and ready to be adopted into your family, to bring you years of joy. Satsumas rarely have any thorns, an attribute that also makes them popular. Each plant is wrapped in bubble wrap to protect against damage in transit. Propagated by Gerald Winters and Son Plants of Bangor, Maine. Adopt one today.

Shipping was prompt, they were nicely insulated and had a heat pack. Unfortunately, we had an unexpected Sub-Zero cold spell after they shipped. They partially froze. Tried babying them along, but they never recovered. Wouldn't hesitate to try again. Nice big plants. Would have been beautiful.

They competed in the same pot. Should have repotted them when I got them. Might have lost one but the bigger one is growing. Arrived healthy looking. Doing what the given instructions say. They will be inside for a year. Up pot as needed. Let you all know in a year how they go.

Very pleased with my purchase. I purchased 2 plants in one 4" pot. Plant arrived a little later than expected due to USPS delays, but plants were packaged extremely well and soil was still moist. The description made me think I was going to receive 4" plants, I was pleasantly surprised to see plants that were 12"+, very healthy and new growth. Directions for care and planting were also included.

First time buying from this seller and I was very pleased. The plants showed up looking very healthy and have continued to do really well. I messaged the seller with a question and they were very prompt and friendly with their response and welcomed any other questions. Would definitely purchase from Gerald and Sons again!
