Pineapple oranges are sweet, succulent, and nutritious.
Very Fragrant
Unlike some other varieties out there, pineapple oranges have quite a few seeds in them on average.
If you want to grow a pineapple orange tree from a seed, it is entirely possible to do it at home.
The first thing to do is to remove the seeds from the pineapple orange and soak them overnight in water. You then plant them in about a 1/2 inch of moist soil.
Cover up the potting soil with plastic and let it sit in a warm, sunny area for a few weeks. During this time, the seeds will sprout.
After this, you can remove the plastic and keep the new baby tree near the sunny area.
US Citrus
After becoming the lead citrus pathologist in Texas, Dr. Skaria implemented the clean citrus program. This is the process is the cornerstone protection against disease for the Texas citrus industry.
In 1997, Dr. Skaria invented the micro-budding grafting technique. This all-natural process allows for drastically reduced land and resource use with quicker fruit production. Upon this backbone, he founds and leads US Citrus & US Citrus Nursery in 2012.
Under Dr. Skaria's leadership, US Citrus has established lemon, orange, mandarin, grapefruit, and lime groves, creating the basis of the Craft Citrus Club citrus subscription box. His mission and passion is to get high-quality, special citrus fruits to the American consumer, all straight from our groves!
US Citrus only uses drip irrigation, reducing water use per tree by over ~90%, compared to flood irrigation techniques.
Because our micro-budded trees are smaller, we plant times higher density than conventional system, using drastically less land per fruit yield.
We plant grass in the middle of our rows to increase natural predators, decreasing pesticide use. Weed fabric is placed around trees for physical suppression of weeds, decreasing herbicide use.
We are experimenting with legumes as a cover crop and to naturally fix nitrogen back into the soil.
Since 2012, US Citrus has been establishing groves in the perfect sandy loam soil of Hargill, a tiny town in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. The community has rewarded us with bountiful inspiration, strengthening our citrus culture.
