Minneola Honeybell Tangelo
Citrus x tangelo 'Minneola'
The Honeybell: a bell-shaped cross of tangerine and grapefruit, intensely sweet, intensely juicy and famous enough in Florida to be shipped by the crate. A short season in January and February is part of the appeal.

Full sun. Crops noticeably better with another mandarin nearby, so pair it with the satsuma if you have room. The fruit is thin-skinned and heavy, so the branches need thinning to stop them breaking in a good year.
