Description

There’s something truly special about growing your own citrus, and this 'Bergamotto' Tree is no exception. This variety delivers a touch of the Mediterranean right to your garden or patio, offering fragrant blossoms, glossy evergreen foliage, and unique, aromatic fruit.

From early spring, this tree bursts into bloom with delicate white flowers, filling the air with a sweet, citrus scent. These highly fragrant blossoms are not only a treat for the senses but also attract pollinators, making your garden a lively, buzzing haven.

Then comes the real magic - its unique fruit. 'Bergamotto' Orange produces round, slightly textured citrus fruits, famously used in Earl Grey tea and perfumes. The skin is rich in aromatic oils, while the juice offers a distinctive tart flavour, perfect for homemade preserves, marinades, and refreshing drinks.

Despite its exotic origins, this tree is surprisingly easy to grow - it thrives in pots, making it an excellent choice for patios, balconies, or even conservatories. While it loves basking in the sun, it can be moved indoors during colder months to keep it protected from frost.

Supplied as an established 70-90cm tall plant in a 4 litre pot, it’s ready to plant and start transforming your outdoor space.

Top Tips

We recommend using our Soluble Citrus Fertiliser to ensure your trees grow into big, healthy specimens and, most importantly, bear lots of juicy fruit!

For best results, bring indoors to cool area for winter.

Feed with specialist feed every month in spring and summer growth - they are hungry fellows.

Care Information
  • Citrus plants tend not to thrive in centrally heated homes, so from mid-Jun to late September, give plants a treat and transfer them outside to make the most of the available sunshine - but remember they are not frost tolerant so will need bringing under cover if cold nights threaten.
  • In summer, water freely - ideally using rainwater, while in winter you can reduce the amount - allowing the surface to partially dry out before watering again. Always allow excess water to drain away.
  • Overwatering in winter is one of the commonest problems, so try to keep them on the dry side.
  • Only minimal pruning is required to reshape or remove dead or damaged shoots.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
