China Oranges are known for their vibrant orange color, succulent flesh, and refreshing flavor, making them a popular choice for fresh consumption as well as for juicing and culinary purposes.
Growing Tips
- China Orange plants thrive in well-drained, sandy loam soil with a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5. They do not tolerate waterlogged conditions, so ensure proper drainage.
- Full sunlight is essential for optimal growth and fruit production. Provide at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- These plants prefer warm, subtropical climates with temperatures ranging between 15°C to 30°C. Protect them from frost as they are sensitive to cold temperatures.
- Pruning can be done to remove dead or diseased branches and to shape the tree. Prune after the fruiting season to encourage new growth.
- Apply organic fertilizer rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium every 3-4 months to promote healthy growth and fruit development.
- Mulching around the base of the tree helps retain soil moisture and suppresses weed growth.
