This orange is arrived from Italy. I don't know what variety is this orange. The fruits with seeds and taste is sweet.

Why does your picture contain two completely different type of leaves? Milet

He said it has seeds. I would assume it's a Valenica variety or Trovita, but without more info it's going to be hard to tell.

I don't know what caused some differense between leaves. First pic was taken in Italy when citrus was odrered. Last pic was taken after 6 months from day of ordering. Yes, fruits contain some seeds, 5-7 or so. I think it is Hamlin but i'm not quite sure.

Hamlin ripens in Oct / Nov. I doubt it would have large fruit this time of year. Hamlin should be in flower / small fruit right now. I would guess this is a very late orange variety.

The rind thickness could be a good clue.

If the photo is recent, I would go with some type of Valencia.
