Puerto Rico's climate is tropical, with average temperatures of 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Sunshine is abundant--as is rain. The mountains get the most rain, about 200 inches annually. The southern part of the island receives about 36 inches annually. A diversity of micro-climates exists in Puerto Rico--it is sometimes thought of as a "continent" in one island. Rain forests, deserts, mountains and beaches all occur on Puerto Rico. The environment gives fruit trees many opportunities to flourish. It's not uncommon for trees to provide more than one crop every year.
Citrus trees thrive on Puerto Rico. Orange trees, for instance, grow all over the island. Natives like a variety they call "china nativa" best. It's small and sweet; and used in desserts like bizcocho de chinas. The grapefruits grown on the island differ from those available in U.S. mainland markets. Available almost all year, the fruits are larger, juicier and a lot sweeter.
This seeds are from Las Marias, the city from china dulce ( sweet orange)
