Posts: 23 Location: Bordertown, SA Registered: February 2008	Best Variety of oranges Posted 227 days ago Hi everyone, I am after people's oppinions on what are the best variety of orange that I could plant in my garden. I have done some research on the net which just confused me. I would like a variety which is sweet for eating, thick skins and easy to peel. I would also like to plant a orange tree that doesn't get too big. I live in the lower south east of SA. Any info and oppinions would be greatly appreciated.	0 0 Alert moderator

You can always keep them pruned down to the height you'd like them kept. _________ Even the hard, dull, dry ground harbours life - which is brought to the surface with the fresh touch of drenching rain (or the humble watering can).	0 0 Alert moderator
