Sanguinelli Blood Orange Tree
Botanical Name: Citrus sinensis ‘Sanguinelli’
Description: The Sanguinelli Blood Orange Tree is a captivating addition to any garden, known for its vibrant fruit and delightful fragrance. Originating from Spain, this variety emerged as a limb sport of the Doblefina blood orange around 1950.
Growth Rate: This tree boasts a moderate growth rate, making it a manageable and rewarding choice for home gardeners.
Mature Size: In approximately 10 years, the Sanguinelli Blood Orange Tree reaches a height of 12 to 14 feet, making it perfect for small to medium-sized yards.
Fruit Characteristics: The medium-sized fruit is a feast for the eyes and the palate. With its deep crimson flesh and orange skin, the Sanguinelli Blood Orange offers a sweet and tangy flavor that is simply irresistible. The fruit is larger and seedier than its parent variety, Doblefina, and often has an asymmetrical shape. The intense and consistent blood coloration of both the rind and flesh sets it apart from other blood oranges.
Harvest Season: Enjoy the bounty of this tree from February to April, when the fruit is at its peak ripeness.
Seeds Per Fruit: Each fruit contains 4 to 10 seeds, adding to its unique character.
Special Features: The development of the striking “blood” coloration is dependent on cool or cold weather for extended periods. The fruit holds well on the tree, allowing for extended harvesting periods, and it stores and ships excellently.
Uses: The Sanguinelli Blood Orange is versatile in the kitchen. It’s perfect for fresh eating, cooking, juice-making, and adding a burst of color and flavor to sauces. Additionally, this tree is ideal for containers, hedges, and edible landscaping, making it a versatile choice for any garden.
Care Tips: Plant in well-drained soil with full sun exposure for optimal growth. Regular watering and occasional fertilization will ensure a healthy and productive tree.
