Certified by the South African Citrus Improvement Scheme
Trees are grown under insect secure structures.
Phytophthora-free
Witkrans nursery has an exceptional track record of being phytophthora-free for many years.
Witkrans tree standard
We prefer to produce a scaffold tree. It is a tree that has scaffold branches at a height required by the grower, with a stem thick enough (not requiring additional support) to support the scaffold.
