Citrus Medica
The Citrus medica, commonly known as the Citron Tree, is one of the oldest cultivated citrus species, renowned for its large, fragrant fruit with a thick rind. Native to India and Southeast Asia, the Citron Tree is a small to medium-sized evergreen tree with an irregular growth habit, characterized by its leathery, dark green leaves and highly aromatic, white or purple-tinged flowers. The fruit, which can be oval, oblong, or even fingered (as in the Buddha’s hand variety), has a rough, yellow rind and a very small amount of pulp. Citron is prized for its aromatic peel, which is used in culinary applications, perfumes, and traditional medicine.
