Notes
'Sanguinelli' 1 gallon (Citrus 'Sanguinelli') is a fruit tree for the food garden, grown for nearly seedless blood oranges. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun. The fruit tastes sweet, tart, and spicy, and it lasts well on the tree. It needs a winter chill to color the fruit and develop sweetness.
Pairs well with Hass avocado, Hachiya persimmon, and Lemon grass.
