Default Re: Dwarf citrus

The fruit is edible, tho a bit on the tart side. I'd recommend peeling or quartering the fruit and dipping it in sugar or honey. The juice is also very good in hot water with some honey as a sort of tea for sore throats. I think you can increase fruit set by putting the tree outside and let your local honey bees do their thing or you can also just use a q-tip to spread the pollen around yourself.
