History
The Honeybell Orange is actually a tangelo, that is, a tangerine-grapefruit hybrid. It is also called Minneola Tangelo. It was developed by researchers in central Florida, near Orlando, and released to growers and the public by the USDA Horticultural Research Station in 1931. The citrus world hasn't been the same since.
Honeybell Oranges were developed by crossing Duncan Grapefruit with Dancy Tangerines. The Duncan is known for its rich, sweet flavor and juice, but it is also very seedy. The Dancy Tangerine is sweet and flavorful but also small with seeds. Crossing these two varieties resulted in a large orange with a delicious sweet-acid flavor and extremely high juice content. Honeybell Oranges are usually seedless or have very few seeds.
