The Seto Satsuma Tree is a type of Mandarin that can tolerate colder temperatures as low as 10 degrees Fahrenheit. Seto Satsumas are virtually seedless, very easy to peel, have thin skin, and a sweet, slightly tangy flavor. These virtues make the fruit a favorite for eating fresh. The tree’s ability to take cold temperatures makes it possible to grow in the ground in USDA Zones 8 to 10, and in a container in colder climates. The fruit is small, deep orange, and has a refreshing, slightly tart, but sweet taste. They have no or very few seeds, and have a surprising amount of juice for their size. Seto Satsuma Trees are also small, and only grow to a mature size of about 12 feet tall, and 6 feet wide. The Seto Satsuma is a small, cold-hardy tree that produces early crops of easy to peel, small, seedless mandarins that are sweet, tart, and juicy. It’s easy to see why this tree is a favorite for both small gardens and container-grown locations.
