Current Facts
The Page tangerine, botanically known as Citrus reticulata X paradise, is a cross between a Minneola tangelo and clementine mandarin. The Page tangerine was created by Gardner & Bellows of the USDA in 1942 in Orlando, Florida and was originally marketed as an orange. The Page tree is plagued with producing unacceptably small fruit.
