Moro Blood Orange

Moro Blood Orange

XF161

Citrus sinensis Wildly popular amongst the foodie circles, blood oranges are rightly earning a place in everyday kitchen use, and now are available as your own, homegrown crop. Moro is the earliest to ripen and the most colorful of the blood orange varieties. Deeply pigmented throughout, the Moro fruit has flesh that is deep, ruby red, nearly purple-black, with a characteristic, heady aroma and sweet flavor with berry overtones. For best fruit flavor and color, plants require warm days and cool nights. Cold hardy to 25-30ºF.

Citrus plants are shipped from early April through June. Since they arrive with their bare roots packed in a damp sawdust mixture, please be prepared to plant with potting soil and a 3-5 gallon container. Complete instructions are included with each order.

PLEASE READ: Not available to AK, AZ, HI, FL, TX, US Territories, or Canada.

"Our citrus trees are 2-3 years old, well developed and branched with large, healthy root systems. Their trunk diameter ranges 1/2-3/4 inches, above-ground height is over 2 feet, and foliage canopy more than 1 foot in diameter. At this stage of development, they are mature enough to produce fruit. We have selected these special varieties for their vigor, beauty, productivity, and practical utility. Grow in full sun outdoors during warm months. In areas with cold winters, bring indoors and locate in a south facing, sunny window during frosty months. All of our citrus are well suited for cultivation indoors as houseplants.
