  • Calamansi Tree: Scientific Name, Origin & Hybridization
    The scientific name of the calamansi tree is Citrus × microcarpa.

    It's important to note the "×" in the name. This indicates that it's a hybrid species, meaning it arose from the crossbreeding of two different species. In this case, the calamansi is a hybrid of Citrus mitis (the "Calamondin" orange) and Citrus japonica (the "kumquat").
