The orange tree, scientifically known as Citrus sinensis, is a small to medium-sized tree that typically grows between 20 to 30 feet tall. It is native to tropical and subtropical regions and is widely cultivated for its sweet, juicy fruit, the orange. The tree has glossy green leaves and fragrant white flowers, which attract pollinators like bees. Orange trees thrive in well-drained soil and require plenty of sunlight and warmth to produce fruit. They are commonly grown in orchards and home gardens around the world, especially in regions like California and Florida, where the climate is ideal for their growth.
