About Harumi
Harumi was developed in Japan from the Kiyomi tangor and a Ponkan. The fruit is valued for its tender flesh, its sweetness, its juiciness and a skin that comes away easily. It ripens in winter and belongs to the modern Japanese citrus selected for high eating quality.
Our observations at the nursery
In our conditions, Harumi comes to maturity in December. We find the fruit excellent when fully ripe.
Harumi or another variety?
