Description

The Lane Late Navel Orange is the secret to enjoying fresh, sweet navels long after the standard season has ended. This remarkable late-ripening variety holds its fruit beautifully on the tree into late spring and even early summer, providing a prolonged harvest of high-quality, seedless eating oranges.

• A late-season, seedless navel orange that extends the navel harvest by months.

• Fruit has excellent quality: a smooth, easy-to-peel rind and sweet, flavorful, low-acid flesh that holds its flavor exceptionally well on the tree.

• A self-pollinating, evergreen tree of moderate size, similar to other navels.

• Ripens very late in the season, typically from late spring into early summer (April-June, sometimes later), long after other navels are finished.

• Fruit has exceptional “hang time” without losing quality or becoming puffy, allowing for a flexible and extended picking period.

• The perfect solution for those who want fresh navels well into summer.

Flavor Profile:

• Flavor: Sweet, well-balanced, and classic navel flavor. Acidity drops as it hangs, resulting in a very sweet, low-acid profile in late season.

• Texture: Holds juice and firmness well, even with extended hang time.

• Best Uses: The ultimate late-season fresh eating orange. Ideal for enjoying when no other navels are available.
