Nobody knows exactly where the orange originated. Though it is grown today in
most of the warmer parts of the world, it was not until recently that the crop became so
widespread.
The Greeks and Romans knew about the orange, and it probably was carried from
India to western Asia and then to all of Europe. The Spanish colonists took the sour
orange to the West Indies, and from there to Florida, soon after the first settlement there in
1565.
The three most important species of oranges are the sweet or common orange, the
Mandarin orange and the sour orange. But as many as ninety-seven varieties of sweet and
Mandarin oranges alone have been counted!
An interesting type of sweet orange is called the blood orange. It has a pulp with a
deep-red tint. It is grown extensively in the Mediterranean region.
The sour orange is grown everywhere, but Spain produces most of the sour
oranges for commercial purposes. This orange is mainly used in making marmalade, since
it is too acidic and bitter to be eaten as a fruit. But there are many other interesting uses,
ranging from medicines to perfume.
