[Orange on a Balcony] Gain full access to this premium Gardening Guide—and an entire Library of food gardening advice—with a [Charter Gold Membership in Food Gardening Network!]( Dear Gardener, Some fruits do all they can to keep you warm and cheery. Citrus fruits, like oranges, brighten up your space, offer intoxicating aromas, and taste like a sip of sunshine. In fact, one orange juice producer even used the slogan, “100% pure squeezed sunshine.” For that matter, as far as marketing goes, I’m pretty sure Florida (the sunshine state!) has the corner on oranges. Their standard license plate even has a couple of oranges right in the middle of the plate. We don’t have anything against Florida. In fact, by February most years, we dream of afternoons on Florida beaches and spending mornings in flip flops and shorts. Florida, we love you, but you aren’t the only place to grow oranges. [Oranges] That’s right. You can grow oranges darn near anywhere. Sure, unless you live in a warm, Mediterranean climate, you’ll be Growing Orange Trees in Containers. And while some, like the Bergamot Orange Tree, can hit 15 feet or so tall or spread in the 10-foot range, some dwarf varietals top out around 6-8 feet tall. For those of you with tall ceilings, the Midknight Valencia Sweet Semi-Dwarf Orange Tree comes in around 10 feet with a spread of about 3 feet. How hard is it to grow oranges indoors in containers? It’s pretty easy, actually. As long as you can give them plenty of direct sunlight, you can grow your own orange juice factory!

Sunlight is, of course, a requirement for an orange tree. They need a minimum of 6 to 8 hours of sunlight a day. A south-facing location is ideal, especially on those shorter winter days. It’s probably no surprise that orange trees prefer rich, well-drained soil. And while they do like consistent water, you don’t want soggy soil. That’s a recipe for root disease. Watch out for suckers, too. They will destroy your tree. The good news is that they’re easy to deal with. Read Juicy Oranges Gardening Guide to learn more details about soil and sun, water and weeding, and proper mulching and pruning. And if you live in zones 8 through 11 and plant your orange trees outside, be sure to read Winterizing Your Orange Trees. It’s not difficult, but it is important if you want your trees to survive. Orangey Goodness in the Kitchen Sure, orange trees are beautiful, they can brighten up your space, and they’re a tasty treat all on their own. But if you haven’t had homemade Orange Marmalade, you’re seriously missing out. You’ll find a recipe for that in the Juicy Oranges Gardening Guide, along with several other recipes that highlight the deliciousness of oranges. For breakfast, there are some wonderful Orange Scones. Then enjoy an after-dinner treat of Candied Orange Peel. You only need oranges, sugar, and water for that one. (Pro Tip: Dip them in chocolate for an extra-decadent experience!) And when those hot summer afternoons roll around, there’s nothing better to beat the heat than your own Fresh Orange Freeze Pops. They’re healthy, too – no sugar added! Be sure to check out these and other easy, breezy, orange-squeezy recipes in the Juicy Oranges Gardening Guide. Just click the link below to get started.
