Small orange-yellow fruit of any of several evergreen trees native to East Asia and cultivated throughout the tropics. The trees grow 2.4–3.6 m/8–12 ft high and have dark green shiny leaves and white scented flowers. The fruit is eaten fresh (the skin is edible), preserved, or candied. The oval or Nagami kumquat is the most common variety. (Genus Fortunella, family Rutaceae.)
