Florida Oranges

Arizona Oranges

Arizona produces quite a few oranges also. I wish our tree produced more than it does, we have already finished those. this place in Mesa has good reviews on Yelp: The Orange Patch, Phone (480) 962-4490

didn't find a website for them.

Baja Oranges

roadside vendors are heavily stocked with Mandarin Oranges now. Big, sweet and juicy. fresh fruit crops are usually available on the street a few days before they are stocked in the supermarkets, and always a better price.
I got 10 yesterday for 25 pesos... that is about a kilo for about 2 dollars.
Will be going back for more today, I ate most of them last evening and will finish them off before noon.

Here are some pics of my “hobby” (yea right). It is a Honeybell Tangelo tree. Or in Northern speak “it’s a friggin orange tree”. I bought it when it was a baby about 1.50' (Plat), 1.54’ (measured) tall twelve years ago. Obviously it isn’t what one would consider an aggressive grower. Anyway the fruit is part orange and part tangerine, more the former. It’s usually a very sweet fruit with a considerable amount of juice. (Make really good screwdrivers).

The majority of the fruit is still tart and is ripe in late February. If you’d like I’ll send you a batch, my email in profile works.
I’d like to send some to everyone who wants them but there isn’t enough to go around. But you brought it up first thus the offer.

Here is the tree....

A little closer....

Off the tree....

I'll second the Honeybell variety. Super good stuff.

Just ordered a case of Honeybells last night. yum yum!!

I'm surprised at how orange they are. This Northern Yankee thought they were a lot more green but maybe that is just oranges. Obviously, I have a lot to learn.

It looks like that tree is quite prolific.

Keep up the good work,
Dave.
