 | Blood Oranges The BLOOD ORANGE is a hybrid that first appeared in Europe around 1850. Common throughout Italy, Moro is the most desirable variety, and is easily distinguished by the rich burgundy color of its juice. A medium-sized fruit, the Moro has a relatively long, early harvest from December through April. The rind is orange, and will acquire a deep blush as the season progresses. The ten to twelve segments of its fruit are nearly seedless. Moro's blood-red pulp has a sweet to tart taste with berrylike overtones. SUPC: 1342856 | ||
