The Hamlin variety originated as a chance seedling in an orchard near Glenwood, Florida, which was planted in 1879, and was named for the owner, A. G. Hamlin. Fruit of the 'Hamlin' orange is sweet, juicy and delicious making it one of the top juicing orange varieties available.
How to grow
Citrus trees need plenty of sun and good drainage. Their shallow roots grow close to the surface, so it's best to mulch beneath the tree to avoid competition from other plants or weeds. Heavy feeders, fertiliser should be applied monthly to ensure they have nutrients available at all times. Apply blood and bone, dynamic lifter or a citrus fertiliser once a month, every month. Citrus will grow in all Australian climates.
