Characteristics of the Fortune Mandarin Tree
Fruit characteristics
Color and Texture: Fortune mandarins have a thin, yellow to bright orange skin when ripe, slightly rough but easy to peel, making them attractive to consumers and ideal for direct sales.
Taste: With a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity, these fruits are distinguished by their aromatic richness and dense, sweet, and juicy flesh. They appeal to a wide range of consumers, whether they are fans of fresh or processed fruit.
Size and shape: Medium in size, the fruits have a slightly flattened spherical shape, typical of mandarins, ideal for harmonious commercial presentations.
Juice Yield: Their rich juice content makes Fortune mandarins a preferred choice for fresh or processed juice production, giving them interesting added value for producers.
Storage and late maturity: The harvest calendar extends from March to mid-May, offering an extension of the citrus season. The fruit can remain on the tree without compromising its taste, ensuring flexibility in harvesting and marketing.
Plant characteristics
Shape and vigor: The Fortune Mandarin tree is a vigorous tree with an upright and dense shape. Its evergreen and slightly fragrant foliage provides an ornamental touch, complementing its agricultural qualities.
Adult size: With an average size, it is suitable for both large and smaller farms.
Self-fertility and cross-pollination: Although partially self-fertile, the Fortune Mandarin benefits from the proximity of other mandarin or clementine trees to improve its yields through cross-pollination.
Hardiness and cold resistance: Resistant to temperatures down to -8°C in protected conditions, this variety is suitable for French regions with moderate winters.
Recommended rootstocks: Rootstocks such as Poncirus trifoliata and Citrange C35 are ideal for optimizing production in France. While Poncirus improves cold hardiness and fruit quality, Citrange C35 enhances productivity and tolerance to slightly calcareous soils.
