Tiger Navel Orange Tree - A rare, variegated citrus with delicious striped fruit

Why You'll Love the Tiger Navel Orange Tree

  • Rare variegated orange tree with striped fruit and colorful foliage
  • Produces delicious, sweet, juicy navel oranges with low acidity
  • Beautiful ornamental green-and-cream variegated leaves year-round
  • Excellent container orange tree for patios, decks, and sunny indoor spaces
  • Fragrant white citrus blossoms in spring

The Tiger Navel Orange Tree is a rare and striking citrus variety prized for both its ornamental beauty and edible fruit. Its variegated green-and-cream foliage provides year-round visual interest, while its uniquely striped oranges make it a standout in any garden or collection- sparking conversation wherever it’s grown.

The delicious striped fruit is medium-sized, sweet, juicy, and low in acidity - similar in flavor to a classic Washington Navel Orange but with added visual appeal. As it ripens, the skin develops golden-orange tones accented by natural green striping. Like other navel oranges, the fruit is typically seedless or nearly seedless and easy to peel.

Fragrant white blossoms appear in spring, filling the air with a classic citrus perfume before fruit sets. Citrus growers appreciate that it offers beauty with its variegated foliage, grows well in containers on patios or balconies, and produces sweet, delicious oranges. Because this is a rare citrus, availability is limited and highly sought after by variegated plant collectors and citrus enthusiasts.

Tiger Navel Orange Tree is perfect for:

• Indoor growers with bright windows or sunrooms

• Gardeners looking for ornamental + edible plants in one
