  • About

There are also several citrus fruits called ‘oranges’ which are really hybrids between oranges and other citrus fruits. The popular Temple ‘orange’ is a tangor or mandarin × orange hybrid, as are the King ‘orange’ and the Ortanique (see mandarin). The Poorman ‘orange’ or ‘New Zealand grapefruit’ is an orangelo or orange × grapefruit hybrid (see ugli). The miniature calamondin ‘orange’ grown as a decorative house plant is sometimes considered to be a mandarin × kumquat hybrid, and sometimes assigned to a species of its own.
