Orange - Trovita The Trovita Orange is a widely adaptable thin skinned orange, which develops excellent flavor without the heat required by other varieties. It also is able to produce heavy crops of fruit in desert heat. Trovita is ideal for fresh-squeezed orange juice, and it is very sweet with few seeds. It ripens in spring, and also blooms in spring, so you may have blooms and fruit at the same time! This is the only orange that is suitable for indoor culture. It will develop a sweet flavor without a lot of heat. The tree is vigorous and upright in growth. It prefers full sun, fertile, but well drained soil, and moderate water. Don't go through another growing season without one of your own! You can grow citrus trees in almost any type of pot, but ceramic or clay is usually recommended; good drainage is essential.
