Valencia Orange Tree

If you've ever poured a glass of orange juice, you've tasted a Valencia. This is the late-season standard that the juice industry was built around, and growing your own means picking it sun-warmed off the branch instead of off a shelf. The fruit is deeply sweet with a bright, balanced tang, almost seedless, and packed with juice!

One quirk gives the Valencia character: as warm weather returns, ripe fruit can flush faintly green again (a harmless effect called regreening) that acts as a natural sunscreen without effecting the sweetness inside.

Every Citrus Tree order signs you up for our upcoming How to Care for Citrus Trees virtual workshop! You'll receive a link to join live in your order confirmation email. Can't make it? We'll send you the workshop recording and care guide afterward.

Why You'll Love It:

• Fruit ripens spring into summer and holds firmly on the tree for months, so a single tree stretches your citrus season for months!
• Valencias run nearly seedless, making them as pleasant to peel and segment as they are to squeeze.
• A mature Valencia often carries ripening fruit and next season's blossoms at the same time.
• Glossy foliage and clouds of white, honey-scented blossoms make it a centerpiece long before the first orange colors up.
