Self-pollinating: Yes

Description: Large, sweet seedless fruit with a “neck” at the top making it easy to peel. The fruit is medium-large in size, with firm flesh. It has a distinctive neck and the peel is a rich orange-yellow color. A pronounced "topknot" bump at the top of the fruit makes it memorable, as well.

More Info: Known as one of the most flavorful mandarins in the world. Also referred to as a “Dekopon”, they are heavyweight-sized fruits big enough to share. One piece of fruit could be considered lunch. Each juicy fruit is easy-peeling and rarely produces seeds. Shiranui’s flavor is a rich mandarin orange honey flavor considered by many to be one of the most flavorful citruses in the world. It is so sweet, that Japan now has chewing gum with Dekopon flavor, also called 'Dekopon'.
