Florida oranges
Jacksonville grove harvest
Florida oranges are citrus fruits grown in Florida, distinguished from California oranges by their thinner skin, higher juice content, and sweeter flavor.
The term appears in marketing and grocery contexts to indicate origin and quality: Florida oranges make the best juice.
Florida's humid climate produces oranges better suited for juicing than eating out of hand.
