| Description: Virtually seedless, medium-large, somewhat oblong fruit of excellent quality and medium-late maturity. Since it ripens earlier than Valencia and does not fruit in clusters to the same degree, it is probably best considered a variety. The tree is moderately vigorous and upright-growing, leaf shape is large and almost grapefruit-like. Bears similar yields to Valencias of same size (not age). At first sight does not appear to carry a good crop but this is the result of the large fruit size. In South Africa the Midknight produces fruit of excellent size (mainly 70-85 mm), good round shape (sometimes very slight shoulder) and very smooth rind texture. Excellent internal quality with high juice percentages and TSS levels. Seedless as Delta but has slightly tougher rag; can also be difficult to peel. Matures at same time as most Valencias. 1930's | ||

| Description: Washington navel orange is also known as the Bahia for the Brazilian city from which it was imported into the United States in 1870.

| Description: A single seed from a deep red coloured fruit collected in Ventura County. Fruit somewhat over-mature looks like a blood orange, including an indentation at stylar end. The tree is a vigorous grower and carries good crops of fruit. The fruit is of good size and flavour and is very low-seeded. Flesh is heavily pigmented with anthocyanin. Although the fruit is mature in late winter, it holds well into late spring, well past the season for conventional blood oranges. Typically larger than Moro; somewhat variable shape; globose to ovoid with a depressed base, possibly due to juvenility; rind frequently heavily blushed, texture more pebbled than Moro or Tarocco; flesh deeply pigmented by anthocyanin, less tender than Tarocco; flavour very good, sweeter than Moro. 1998 | ||

| Description: Medium to large sized fruit that has few to no seeds. The flesh colours a nice blood colour and flavour is outstanding if picked late in January. One of the oldest and now rarest Italian light blood oranges. Tarocco is a medium-sized, vigorous, moderately productive tree. Tarocco fruit have a typical, slightly ovate shape. The fruit are bottom heavy and the shape tapers towards the top, which can have a pointed collar. The rind is medium thick but easily peelable. The lightly pigmented flesh is soft and finely textured. The flavour is rich and fragrant and has a good balance of acidity and sugar. Tarocco is considered one of the best blood orange varieties and some say it is one of the most delicious sweet orange varieties in general. | ||

| Description: This seedling line was chosen for propagation because of its outstanding performance on fruit production, vigour, fruit size, and its deep red colour in the flesh and rind. The quality of the fruit is also excellent. The distinctive colour requires a chilly winter to develop properly. Tarocco #7 is one of the most delicious blood orange varieties, although the rind of this blood orange gets very little to no coloration at all. 1967 | ||

| Description: Don't let its unassuming exterior fool you, because this mottled green citrus is truly delectable. Its size rivals that of a grapefruit, with a milder, much sweeter taste, fibrous sections inside and a slight protrusion at the base that looks like an "outie" navel. The Ugli fruit, however, was purportedly discovered in a Jamaican pasture in 1917. Now believed to be a natural cross between a mandarin orange and a grapefruit. | ||
