Description

Add a splash of Mediterranean sunshine to your garden or patio with the dazzling Citrus Meyer Doppio Sanguigno - better known as the 'Rainbow Orange'. This unusual citrus tree produces striped blood oranges with a rich, tangy flavour and striking colour as they ripen from orange to deep red.

With glossy evergreen leaves and sweetly scented white flowers in spring, it’s a true feast for the senses. Ideal for a sunny patio, balcony, or even a bright conservatory, this compact tree is easy to grow in pots and brings year-round interest. Move it indoors in autumn and you’ll often enjoy a second flush of blossom. Tasty fruit, showstopping looks and that unmistakable citrus scent - what’s not to love?

As with all Citrus products, make sure to apply our Blooming Fast Citrus Feed every time you water this plant while in active growth.

This citrus tree loves plenty of sunlight and well-draining soil, making it as easy to care for as it is rewarding. Use the fruit for freshly squeezed juice, zesty desserts, or even homemade marmalade - bringing a burst of flavour straight from your garden to your table.

Supplied in a 4 litre pot, already 65-90cm tall, ready to plant.

Top Tips
  • For best results, bring indoors to a cool area for winter.
  • Feed with specialist feed every month in spring and summer growth - they are hungry fellows.
  • Care Information
    • Citrus tend not to thrive in centrally heated homes, so give plants a treat and transfer them outside through summer 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.
    • Only minimal pruning is required to reshape or remove dead or damaged shoots.

    Watering:

    • 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.
    • Our beautiful Mediterranean citrus trees are grown in a slightly heavier growing medium, so be sure to take care when watering. Be sure not to overwater, as with all your plants, but also make sure not to allow the soil to dry out.
