The story

Florida's early juice orange.

The early-season juice orange Florida's groves were built on. Medium fruit, thin skin, pale gold flesh, low acid and nearly seedless. It ripens October to December, ahead of most sweet oranges, and is one of the more cold-tolerant of them.

Light

Full sun, eight hours if you can get it. Indoors, the sunniest window you have, or a grow light in winter.

Water

Water deeply when the top 2 in. of soil is dry. Citrus hates soggy roots more than it hates thirst.

Planting

In the ground in zones 9–11, in fast-draining soil, slightly high. Anywhere else, a pot with drainage holes and a citrus or cactus mix, one size up from the nursery pot.

Fresh-squeezed juice before the holidays, from your own tree.
