Orange Cara Cara 'Blood Orange'

Distinctive rich pink flesh. Flavour is low acid and sweet, and has more depth and richness than that of the traditional navel. Virtually seedless. Needs plenty of sun, warmth and protection from hard frosts.

Plant in deeply-worked, free-draining but moisture retaining soil. Water well when planting then regularly for two to three weeks. An annual citrus fertiliser and frequent watering will reward you with bounteous fruit.

All citrus varieties are self fertile so can be planted alone and fruit will be produced. Take care when planting seedless varieties (like Mandarin ‘Miho’) with other citrus trees, as despite the variety being seedless, they can form seeds if cross pollinated with another variety flowering at the same time.
