This fruit tree produces bright-orange fruit with thin skin. The flesh of the fruit is firm, rich in flavor, and contains only a few seeds. The fruit typically ripens from mid-spring to early autumn, while Citrus orange 'Valencia' produces scented white flowers throughout the summer months. Additionally, Citrus orange 'Valencia' is self-fertile, which means that it can produce fruit without the need for additional trees for pollination, making it a convenient option for gardeners. Citrus orange is evergreen, a hybrid between Citrus reticulata and Citrus maxima, and native to China, India, and Myanmar. Citrus orange 'Valencia' was named after the famed sweet oranges produced in València, Spain and was first hybridized by William Wolfskill (1798-1866) in the mid-1800s on his farm in Santa Ana, California, United States.

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.

Soil pH

When designing and planting your garden, it can be useful to know whether the soil is acid or alkaline, as different plants thrive in different soils. The soil pH is a number that describes how acid or alkaline your soil is. The soil pH scale will give you an idea of what soils a species will grow in.

Acidic soils have a pH below 7.0

Alkaline soils have a pH above 7.0

Neutral soils have a pH of 7.0
