Plant Description

The Citrus aurantium "Corrugated VESUVIUM" is a striking cultivar of bitter orange, notable for its deeply corrugated rind and intense orange-red fruits. The fruits are medium-sized, with a dramatic, sculptural texture that gives them a molten-lava-like appearance, reminiscent of their Vesuvian namesake. The foliage is glossy and dark green, with fragrant white citrus blossoms appearing in spring. The fruit’s rich color and ornamental rind make it a standout among citrus varieties.
