Kumquats are native to Southeast China where they were first domesticated and can still be found growing wild. The earliest description of the fruit comes from Ancient Chinese scholar Han Yen-chih's “Monograph of Oranges,” in 1178 BCE.
To do this, dry the seeds of one kumquat, then sow them in moist soil. After a period of high humidity and temperatures of around 22°C, a young kumquat plant should develop. But bear in mind: it will take a few years before your kumquat plant flowers and bears fruit.
