New Orange Varieties to Revolutionize Southern Growers
The United States Department of Agriculture reports a frost hardy orange program born after 1890s freezes. Hybridizing between the Japanese hedge orange and the Indian River sweet orange yields several fruits, including tart marmalade oranges, grapefruit-like table fruit, lemon substitutes, and a sweet orange named the Rusk and Willett. Thousands of trees will be distributed to stations and nurserymen, with hopes to reach northern markets in a few years.
