Farm Summer Orange

Last updated 2026-11-15 — The demonstration farm's summer orange, also known as May Red, was introduced and cultivated in 1984, and has now been planted across 100 acres. The flowering and fruit-setting of summer oranges are similar to those of other common oranges, but their fruits mature in early May of the following year. This period coincides with a scarcity of citrus fruits such as mandarins and oranges, making them very popular in the market.
