Citrus sinensis 'Washington Navel' (Washington Navel Orange)

Citrus sinensis 'Washington Navel' (Washington Navel Orange) is a highly popular and reliable citrus variety prized for its large, seedless fruits with sweet, easy-to-segment flesh and distinctive navel formation. This evergreen tree features glossy, dark green leaves and fragrant white flowers that develop into abundant, high-quality oranges. The fruits have a bright orange, easy-to-peel rind and contain juicy, flavourful flesh that is perfect for fresh eating, juicing, and culinary uses.

Ideal for home orchards and edible landscapes, 'Washington Navel' thrives in well-drained soil and full sun. It requires a warm, frost-free climate and benefits from regular watering during fruit development. This tree is self-fertile and typically begins bearing fruit within 2–3 years, providing both ornamental beauty and delicious winter harvests when few other fruits are available.
