Description

The Valencia Orange is the quintessential juice orange, now in a space-saving package. Famous for its exceptionally high juice content, sweet flavor, and thin skin, this dwarf variety brings the classic summer juicing experience to patios and small gardens throughout the Bay Area.

• A dwarf variety of the world‘s premier juicing orange, producing full-sized, oval fruit with a thin, smooth, bright orange skin.

• Flesh is incredibly juicy, sweet, and flavorful with very few seeds, yielding juice that is balanced and non-bitter—the gold standard for orange juice.

• Grows on a compact, evergreen tree (stays 8-10 ft or less with pruning), making it ideal for containers or small landscape spaces.

• A late-season orange that ripens from spring through summer and into fall (April-October), with fruit holding exceptionally well on the tree.

• While perfect for juicing, the fruit is also enjoyable to eat fresh, though the skin is tighter and harder to peel than a navel.

• Requires a pollinator (another citrus flowering at the same time) for best fruit set, though it may set some fruit alone.

Flavor Profile:

• Flavor: Sweet, balanced, and pure classic orange flavor with just the right acidity for refreshing juice.

• Texture: Extremely juicy with a tender pulp. The skin is thin and clings tightly.

• Best Uses: The ultimate home juicing orange. Also excellent for slicing (as it‘s seedless), cooking, marinades, and fresh eating when peeled.
