Contact SupplierNavel oranges have the distinctive feature of having a small secondary fruit embedded in the apex of the primary fruit, and although this characteristic is sometimes found in other oranges and particularly in mandarins, it is never consistent and varies depending upon climatic factors.generally speaking, navels are the earliest, maturing of orange varieties, producing seedless fruit of larger size than most others, with deep orange, easily peeled rinds, and a sweet and pleasant flavour.however, there are serious limitations to their production since the trees are less vigorous and less productive than those of many other varieties, and they are far more specific in their climatic adaptability for example, navels thrive and produce superior quality fruit only in subtropical, mediterranean type climates and are unsuited to many regions where other orange varieties perform well. In contrast with valencia oranges, which are grown in many citrus-producing environments and are one of the mainstays of production in tropical as well as semi and subtropical regions, navels are far more restricted in their distribution.
