Default What is it?

How about Calamondin? I have seen some of these in garden centres recently along with mini lemons.

The other week I bought a plant at B&Q. The tag has gone missing so I
don't
know what it is.

It's like a small orange tree (30cm high ish) with small orange fruit

on,
although it's not quite the same as the one they are selling at the
moment
for Mothers' Day.

Solanum? Are the fruit smooth and marble sized?

No. Marble sized but more like a minature orange.

Citrus mitis?

Brown leaves doesn't sound good.
Have you kept it *too* moist?
Where have you kept it?
Any fine spiders webs on the tips of the shoots? Any round brown scales
on the underneath of the leaves?
