My landscaper planted a "kumquat magnolia" but i cant find any info online about such a tree..is it misnamed?

A Kumquat is a member of the citrus family (like oranges and lemons) with yellow to red fruits. There is a variety "Marumi" and one called "Meiwa" -- but no "magnolia".





There are many Magnolia species and hundreds of varieties. There are some with the common name of "Cucumber Magnolia", but no kumquat magnolia!!!





What does your tree look like? Does it have any edible fruit??





Good Luck!!

Kumquat is a citrus and bears an edible fruit. It is also spelled cumquat.





Here in Australia people use it to make jam and brandy.





Search kumquat in wikipedia and you will find more info.
