citrus orchards

Lemon tree farms

Citrus orchards are plantings of citrus trees—oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, and related fruits—cultivated commercially or privately.

The term typically suggests organized rows of trees rather than scattered plantings: The citrus orchards of Florida were devastated by the freeze.

Citrus groves means the same thing.
