The ‘Seminole’ tangelo (Citrus reticulata x Citrus paradisi ‘Seminole’) is a popular citrus hybrid, a cross between a tangerine (likely ‘Dancy’) and a grapefruit (likely ‘Bowen’). Renowned for its distinctive bell shape, it boasts a thin, reddish-orange rind that is relatively easy to peel. The ‘Seminole’ tangelo is highly valued for its abundant, incredibly juicy, and flavorful flesh, offering a delightful balance of sweetness and tartness with a fragrant aroma. It’s an excellent choice for fresh eating, juicing, or adding a vibrant citrus note to culinary dishes. For prolific fruit production and the development of its optimal flavor and color, ‘Seminole’ tangelo trees require full sun, ideally a minimum of 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. While they can tolerate some very light afternoon shade in the hottest climates, consistent full sun is essential for robust growth, strong flowering, and the development of high-quality fruit. They also prefer well-drained soil and consistent moisture, especially during flowering and fruit development.
