The amount of fruit that a kumquat tree will yield will vary. It will depend on the size of the tree and if it is grown indoors or out. Indoor trees will yield a few pounds of fruit in a year while an outdoor tree can produce many pounds.
The size of the tree would be the governing factor in this answer.
Mandarin, although the tree is not small. The kumquat has small fruits, usually made into marmalade.
To prune a kumquat tree for healthy growth and fruit production, focus on removing dead or damaged branches, thinning out crowded areas to improve air circulation, and shaping the tree to encourage sunlight penetration. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Avoid over-pruning, as this can reduce fruit production.
Ah, a kumquat is a small citrus fruit that you can eat whole, skin and all. It's like a little burst of sunshine in your mouth! Just imagine painting a happy little kumquat tree in a peaceful orchard, surrounded by fluffy clouds and happy little birds.

A kumquat is a fruit which resembles a miniature orange. It is sometimes mistaken for a citrus fruit, but actually belongs to the genus Fortunella. The kumquat, also spelled cumquat, has a thin, sweet skin with a tart, sour flesh. The kumquat can be eaten whole, though some find its juicy center to be too sour.The kumquat is grown on a tree which is shrubby in appearance and usually about 8 to 15 feet (2.4 - 4.5 meters) tall. The kumquat tree has dark, glossy green leaves and bears white flowers. The fruit itself is oval and oblong or round and ranges from golden yellow to reddish-orange in color when ripe.The kumquat is believed to be native to China, as it was described in Chinese literature as early as 1178. Kumquat trees require a warm summer to grow, but can withstand 10 to 15 degrees of frost without injury and enter into a period of winter dormancy that can last into several weeks of warmer weather. The kumquat can therefore be grown in regions too cold for citrus fruits, such as the tea region of China, although fruits from warmer regions grow to a larger size and taste sweeter.Srinivasu K

The fruit from a dwarf tree is the same size as regular fruit. The main difference between dward trees and normal sized trees are the amounts of fruit each will yield.
Hi, you may be referring to the "KUMQUAT"-- a type of citrus fruit from a shrubby, slow-growing tree that is native to Asian countries. Some countries regard the tree and fruits of the kumquat to be a lucky charm or a prosperity magnet. In Chinese, the KUMQUAT is translated in English as "Golden Mandarin." Though like an orange, it is smaller in size. There are round and elongated varieties. The round ones are about 1-2" in diameter. You can see a lot of these during the Chinese Lunar New Year where they are hung outside homes or decorated on top of doors for good luck.
