Tarocco oranges are finally available again here, so I bought a few kilos.
I ate 3 of them already but found no seeds in them... Sad are tarocco oranges usually seedless?

No, they are not really seedless.

Just you can eat several kilos and find none and take one and find like 6 seeds in it ...

Be sure they grow all and are very cute sedlings.

They grow fast and are strong.

That happens when the coldness outside or in a storage room broke the germnation inhibition.

Mine won't be germinating that soon. I put it in a pot in our veranda, where temperature is below 10°C/50°F right now.

I found another seed yesterday. Unfortunately I crushed it between my teeth... Rolling Eyes Laughing

I was able to acquire three Thermal Tarocco seeds this week. They were really plump. They have been planted! Very Happy

Awesome. I better label it before I loose track of it. Shocked I tend to do that sometimes.
