Oranges
Orange fruits and a cross section of a third. The orange is a hybrid of ancient cultivated origin, possibly between pomelo and tangerine. Sometimes called the "sweet orange" to distinguish it from the bitter orange, the plant originated in Southeast Asia. The name is thought to ultimately derive from possibly the Telugu naarinja or Tamil nāram; both are names of the tree in the respective languages.Photo credit: Fir0002
