Its fruit is distinguished by its round shape and thick, sugary rind. Unlike the tart-fleshed Nagami, the Meiwa is sweet throughout. The thick, oil-rich skin provides a fragrant crunch, while the pulp is notably less acidic, making it the favorite choice for children and fresh-fruit enthusiasts. The foliage features leaves that are thick, waxy, and a deep forest green. The Meiwa is a slow-growing, self-shaping tree that naturally forms a dense, rounded \"ball\" silhouette. It is the most well-behaved citrus, rarely requiring heavy pruning to maintain its tidy, professional look. The Meiwa Kumquat is your \"Patio Gold.\" It is the ideal recommendation for those who want a low-maintenance, high-reward fruit tree that looks as sophisticated as it tastes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\" align=\"left\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 99.9102%;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e \u003ccol style=\"width: 30.9384%;\"\u003e \u003ccol style=\"width: 69.0455%;\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cem\u003eCitrus crassifolia\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage: Evergreen\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeaves: \u003c\/strong\u003eThick and Leathery.
