Citrus Encore is a productive evergreen citrus tree valued for its sweet, juicy mandarins and extended harvest season. It has glossy, dark green foliage and produces fragrant white flowers that develop into medium-sized fruit with thin, easy-to-peel skin. The fruit is typically sweet and richly flavoured, ripening later in the season than many other mandarin varieties, extending the supply of fresh fruit from the garden.

Well suited to New Zealand home gardens, it can be grown as a feature tree or in a large container. Plant in a warm, sunny, sheltered position with fertile, free-draining soil that retains moisture. Regular watering during dry periods and feeding throughout the growing season help promote healthy growth and good fruit production. Protect from heavy frost and cold winds. Evergreen.
