If you mean the very small mandarins, in the northeastern
USA, we've only been able to purchase them around
December-February.

Sometimes they're called 'satsumas', sometimes 'mandarins',
sometimes other things. I think they're called
'clementines' too.


*Mandarins* and *tangerines* are synonomous. Satsuma and clementine are just
varieties of mandarins.
