Citrus x sinensis ‘Moro’ is a blood orange with seedless, juicy, sweet fruit with distinctive purple-red flesh and an exotic berry-like flavour. It has some of the darkest flesh of the blood oranges and plants reach maturity quickly. Blood oranges require a winter chill to colour the fruit and develop sweetness. All of our citrus are grafted onto C-35 citrange, trifoliate orange, or other semi-dwarfing rootstock which confer good hardiness and production while reducing overall tree size.
