Temple Tangor Tree (Citrus × tangor 'Temple')

Does not ship to Florida

The Temple Tangor is a flavorful hybrid citrus that combines the sweetness of a mandarin with the richness of an orange. Beloved for its bold, aromatic fruit and attractive form, the Temple Tangor is a must-grow for gardeners who want a unique citrus tree that delivers both beauty and bold flavor.

Key Features:

  • Foliage: Deep green, glossy evergreen leaves with a slightly spreading, rounded growth habit.

  • Fruit: Medium to large fruit with deep orange, easy-to-peel skin. The flesh is juicy, vibrant orange, and bursting with sweet-tart, complex flavor.

  • Blooms: Fragrant white blossoms appear in spring, often with a second smaller bloom later in the year in ideal climates.

  • Size: Grows 10–15 feet tall and wide in the ground, or smaller in containers with regular pruning.

Growing Conditions:

  • USDA Zones: 9–11

    • Thrives in subtropical and warm Mediterranean climates such as Southern California, the Gulf Coast, and Central to South Florida.

  • Sunlight: Requires full sun (6–8+ hours daily) for best growth and fruit quality.

  • Soil: Prefers well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH.

Cold Climate Growing Tips:

While the Temple Tangor loves warmth, it can be grown successfully in cooler zones with a little care:

  • Container Growing: Perfectly suited for large pots. Use a well-draining citrus soil mix and a container with drainage holes.

  • Winter Protection: Move indoors before temperatures dip below 32°F (0°C). Place in a sunny window or supplement with grow lights during the winter months.

  • Outdoor Summering: Place outside during warmer seasons for best fruit development and natural pollination.

Uses & Benefits:

  • Flavor Superstar: The rich, sweet-tart flavor makes Temple Tangors ideal for snacking, juicing, salads, and desserts.

  • Ornamental Value: Glossy leaves, fragrant blooms, and vibrant fruit make this tree as beautiful as it is useful.

  • Healthy Choice: A good source of vitamin C and antioxidants—great for boosting the immune system and enjoying fresh, homegrown flavor.
