Citrus x sinensis ‘Sanguinelli’ is a nearly seedless blood orange with a complex flavour of sweet, tart, and spicy sometimes with almost berry like quality. The rind can range from orange to red. Fruit lasts well on the tree. Plants love heat. 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.
