Orange trees (Citrus sinensis) add aesthetic value to any lawn or landscape, but may not produce the sweetest fruit when planted from seed. This is because the orange’s taste is dependent on the genetic qualities of the fruit. The sweet and familiar taste of oranges comes from only a few species that are, in a sense, cloned using a process called budding. Thousands of years old, this process requires no lab equipment and can provide even the home gardener with the sweet taste of oranges year after year.
