A unique color and flavor. The Blood Orange is very sweet and high in antioxidants. These delicious, large oranges ripen early and are easy to grow. Grows anywhere in the US as a patio plant!

• Easy to grow
• Delicious, healthy oranges
• Low maintenance

Moro Blood Oranges are known not only for their unique color, but also for their super-sweet taste.

Add a unique zest to your oranges. The Moro Blood Oranges are famous for their distinctive aftertaste- similar to raspberry or strawberry.

You'll also enjoy a wonderful show of blossoms in the spring... they're so fragrant, they can actually fill up your whole yard with a delightful citrus scent.

These orange trees are very cold hardy. However, if you live up north, we suggest potting them up and placing them on your patio. Once it starts getting cold, you can bring your orange tree inside... adding a citrusy fragrance to your kitchen.

These blood oranges are extremely healthy as a snack, or when you juice them. They're high in both vitamin C and anti-aging antioxidants.

These trees are in high demand this time of year, and we only have a limited supply available. Be sure to order yours now before they sell out.

Your Moro Blood Orange can be planted any time of year!

It's Easy to Plant your Moro Blood Orange
	Step 1 - Dig Your Hole Select a site with full to partial sun and moist or well drained soil for your Moro Blood Orange. If you're planting a hedge, mark out a visual guide by placing stakes five to six feet apart and looping string around them. Plant the trees where the stakes are and they'll grow together to make a dense privacy screen. First, dig each hole so that it is just shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. Then loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your shovel or try dragging the points of a pitch fork along the sides and bottom of the hole.
	Step 2 - Place Your Tree Next, separate the roots of your Moro Blood Orange gently with your fingers and position them downward in the hole. The top of the root flare, where the roots end and the trunk begins, should be about an inch above the surrounding soil. Then make sure the tree is exactly vertical in the hole. To make it just right, use a level.
	Step 3 - Backfill Your Hole As you backfill the hole, apply water to remove air pockets. Remove debris like stones and grass and completely break up any dirt clumps. Water your Moro Blood Orange again after the transplant is complete. To help retain some of that moisture, it's recommended that you place mulch around each tree to a depth of 2"-3" up to but not touching the trunk. Organic mulches such as wood chips or pine needles also help to better soil structure as they decompose.

We ordered this tree and it came in excellent conditions. Because of the cold (zone 7) we have brought it inside the home and it is doing very well. I have two oranges on it but I am not sure if they are going to mature since the tree is no longer outside. The tree is beautiful and it looks great in our living room. Oh and the smell of the flowers is like nothing I have ever smelled...out of this world, just plain awesome.
