Olinda Nucellar Valencia Orange Budwood

Citrus sinensis.

A chance seedling, presumably of Valencia. Especially smooth, fine quality on outside, thin-skinned, full of juice. Fair to good quality when sampled in April 1939, size about "176". Trees inspected were probably 10 years old and growing under poor conditions.  It is indistinguishable from Frost Valencia and hence is considered to be of nucellar origin.  Olinda is currently popular in California (1967).

Rootstocks of accession:  Carrizo citrange, C-35 citrange.

Season of ripeness at Riverside, California:  March to July.
