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...  are tarocco oranges usually seedless? _________________ - Marc

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. |

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... _________________ - Marc

I was able to acquire three Thermal Tarocco seeds this week. They were really plump. They have been planted! _________________ Okay, I don't need any more trees. Look! Another tree for sale!!! |
