Thai Tropical Tangerines (Citrus Tangerina ) are unusual as they have green skins as opposed to bright orange ones you are used to seeing when ripe. The skin is very much thinner, green, and easier to peel.

Thai tangerines are very sweet and low on acid, which makes for a smooth and sweet drink.

The Tangerines are a great source of vitamin C, foliate and beta carotene. They also contain some potassium, magnesium and vitamins B1, B2 and B3.

Growing Instructions

Stage 1: Combine together equal parts of peat moss, loam and sand in a bucket. Split the growing media into individual three or four-inch plastic pots until filled.

Stage 2: Pack down the growing media until it's firm and well compressed in each of the three or four-inch pots. Place the pots into a watering tray, or any other container that can hold about one inch of water.

Stage 3: Pour water into the tray so the three or four-inch pots will absorb enough water to become well saturated. Drain out any remaining water after the pots have been moistened.

Stage 4: Poke one-half deep holes in the centre of each three or four-inch plastic pot. Drop into each hole, two to three of the Kaffir lime tree seeds. Then, sprinkle approximately one half inch of the growing media over the top of each of the holes.

Cover the pots with cling film forming a mini greenhouse environment.

Stage 5: Transfer the tray of pots into a warm, bright location. The location should have a consistent temperature of between 21 and 24 deg. Celsius at all times. Ideally, eight to 10 hours of light daily also should be available. Germination of the Thai Tangerine tree seeds can begin in as little as 14 days, but can take up to 6 weeks in cooler environment.
