Difference between revisions of "Bitter Orange"

The Seville orange is tolerant of a wider variety of growing conditions than its relative, sweet orange. It grows in richer, heavier soils that keep moist longer, and accepts a variety of soil types. Although it grows in subtropical and tropical climates, it is cold-hardy enough to live through short periods of freezing weather. The trees need regular, deep watering and will grow in full sun or partial shade. They naturalize in favorable climates, now growing wild in many tropical and subtropical areas, such as Florida, Mexico and the West Indies. In the garden, fertilize them as you would any citrus. Use them to line paths or sidewalks, as accent or specimen trees, or for your own source for homemade marmalade. You can also grow them from seed.
