Navelina Orange

Navelina is an early navel orange, ripening ahead of Washington Navel from late autumn. The fruit has deep orange skin, sweet, rich flesh and no seeds, and it peels easily. It is one of the best oranges for eating fresh.

The tree is compact and naturally rounded, so it suits smaller gardens. Plant it in full sun with soil that drains well, water deeply through dry spells and feed with a citrus fertiliser in spring and late summer. Grow it with a later navel to enjoy oranges for months.
