An orange grove is a cultivated area where orange trees (Citrus sinensis) are grown for their fruit. These groves can vary in size, from small family-owned farms to large commercial orchards. The trees thrive in warm climates with plenty of sunlight and well-drained soil, making them common in regions like California and Florida. In an orange grove, the trees typically bloom in spring, producing fragrant white flowers that eventually develop into oranges. Harvesting usually occurs in late fall to winter when the fruit is ripe. Orange groves play a significant role in agriculture, contributing to the economy and providing fresh fruit for consumers.
