Shamouti Sweet Orange

Shamouti is a medium to large, oval-shaped sweet orange.  It is nearly seedless, and has a thick, leathery rind.  Shamouti peels well, and ships and stores well. It is a midseason fruit.  Although Shamouti is the preferred name of the fruit, it has also been called Jaffa in Europe.  The tree is sensitive to heat and aridity, and so it is not adapted to hot desert or semitropical climates.  Shamouti originated some time prior to 1844 in an orchard near Jaffa, Isreal, as a limb sport. Within a few decades, it became the leading variety.
