The Centennial Variegated Kumquat is a unique citrus variety valued for its ornamental beauty and flavorful fruit. It originated as a variegated mutation of the Nagami kumquat and features striking green-and-cream foliage with attractive striped fruit that turns orange when ripe. Compared to Nagami, the fruit has a thinner peel and more juicy flesh, making it especially enjoyable for fresh eating. This compact and productive tree is well suited for containers and home gardens.
