Silverhill Satsuma Mandarin trees are easy to peel, making them great for children. The fruit is sweet and juicy with segments that easily separate. Silverhill trees have large, deep green leaves which look stunning next to the large, bright orange, seedless fruit.
Silverhill is a relatively cold-hardy citrus tree, making it a good choice for cooler climates. It can tolerate light frost, but it is best to protect it from heavy freezes. The Silverhill citrus tree is relatively easy to care for. It needs to be watered regularly, especially during hot, dry periods. It should also be fertilized in the spring and autumn.
The Silverhill mandarin is a great choice. Our youngest family members are always pulling these mandarins off the trees and eating way too many. Just as well they are vigorous and productive trees. With minimum care, you can enjoy fresh, delicious mandarins from your own backyard for years to come.
