The only seedless kumquat of which I am aware is Nagami; I have one at my lemon farm

Where can I buy Seedless Nagami and meiwa online?

Nordmann is the name of the seedless version of Nagami Kumquat. Just do a search on google for citrus trees for sale, it is hard to say who will ship to your area as there are numerous restrictions for citrus.

I got the nordmann nagami from logees 2 years ago. Lovely, healthy plant, but small. It is now 28"tall. It was probably around 12" when I got it.

I have since found kumquats at Home Depot and Pike Nursery.

Thank you for all the responses. I have called all our local nurseries. One of the nurseries have the sweet Kumquat. Plant doesn’t have any name tag on it. They told me it’s a sweet Kumquat. Hoping that it’s Meiwa Kumquat. How do I recognize it?

they have 2 varieties, tart and sweet. Tart one has name tag, Nagami. It’s not a Seedless one. I am going to visit the nursery tomorrow.

Meiwa will have round fruit, Nagami more oval fruit. If there is no fruit much harder to identify from the foliage as both are similar. Here is the UCR website with kumquat varieties, there are pictures and descriptions...

Meiwa

At this time of year, I wonder if these are leftovers or new stock. It's a bit early. Also, check very carefully for scale on the plants. My last aquisition has it, and they are very hard to see. I only found them when I noticed the honewdew.

I have been to the nursery, I have found big plants for $50. But when I tasted the fruits, I like Nagami better. It have some flavor. Meiwa is bland. I was concerned, I am not sure whether I am looking at the right variety or not. When everyone feel meiwa is sweet, why I am not feeling the same? Am I looking at the wrong variety

you can pick the meiwa when it is mostly still green if you want some nagami kick to it. You may want a Marumi kumquat. H:ow do others like the Marumi.

Here is my Meiwa, growing new branches:

Nice and healthy plant.

Bunti, I got it in the spring of 2017 and it did not grow much last year, it had only single trunk, the top left branch and the second little one down midway it grew last year. The rootstock suckers at soil level have been removed since then.

Summer 2017:

Nice Meiwa tree. Do you know what rootstock it is on. It did not look trifoliatie

Steve, it is on Volkamer rootstock and my Bearss lime is on Flying Dragon.

You were lucky to be able to taste test. And you found 2 different kumquats at the same nursery, in Feb?? (would love to know the name of the nursery)

The few meiwas I have had are from 2 different trees. They are not as juicy as nagami (altho I got several batches of nagami from the grocery that had no juice), and just didn't seem as enjoyable. Meiwa is called sweet because it has less of the tart juice. Fruit quality should increase with the age of the plant. Also bear in mind you ate one fruit that may/not have been perfectly ripe.

Again, if you want seedless, your only choice is nordmann nagami. Mine had a lovely afternoon basking on the deck today, since it was warm. Got a shower, too. Hope it wasn't too sunny.
