There is a whole world of interesting facts – such as that the orange is actually a type of Berry - relating to the Common Orange that are fascinating. For example, did you know that:
Orange juice is one of the commodities traded on the New York Board of Trade.
Sweet orange oil, a by-product of the juice industry is produced by pressing the peel. It is used as a flavoring in food and drink and for its fragrance in perfume and aromatherapy.
It is an efficient cleaning agent which is promoted as being environmentally friendly. Its smell is considered more pleasant by some than those of other cleaning agents.
The orange blossom is traditionally associated with good fortune, and was popular in bridal bouquets and head wreaths for weddings for some time.
The petals of orange blossom can also be made into a delicately citrus-scented version of rosewater.
In Spain, fallen blossoms are dried and then used to make tea.
Orange blossom honey is produced by putting beehives in the citrus groves during bloom, which also pollinates seeded citrus varieties. Orange blossom honey is highly prized, and tastes much like orange.
All parts of the orange are used to make marmalade: the pith and pips are separated, and typically placed in a muslin bag where they are boiled in the juice (and sliced peel) to extract their pectin, aiding the setting process.
Orange peel is used by gardeners as a slug repellent.
Wow! All that from one fruit. Every garden should grow one.
