Dwarf Orange ‘Cara Cara Blood Navel’ Grafted Citrus Tree
Dwarf Cara Cara Blood Navel Orange – Sweet Pink-Fleshed Seedless Oranges for Small Gardens
The Dwarf Cara Cara Blood Navel Orange is a premium grafted citrus tree prized for its stunning pink to salmon-coloured flesh, exceptionally sweet flavour and seedless fruit. Despite its name, the Cara Cara is not a true blood orange but a naturally occurring mutation of the Washington Navel Orange, producing vibrant pink flesh with a rich, sweet flavour and very low acidity.
Its naturally compact growth habit makes it perfect for pots, patios, balconies, courtyards and small gardens, allowing you to enjoy delicious home-grown oranges even in limited spaces. The fruit is juicy, easy to peel and ideal for fresh eating, juicing, fruit salads and desserts.
Thriving in Brisbane, Narangba, Moreton Bay, South East Queensland and many other parts of Australia, the Dwarf Cara Cara Blood Navel Orange is easy to grow and rewards gardeners with generous harvests year after year.
