The "Sunstar" is a specific mid-season sweet orange variety (Citrus sinensis) originally released by the USDA in 1987. It is known for its heavy yields, high juice content, and resistance to pre-harvest fruit drop compared to other popular mid-season varieties like the Pineapple orange.

Profile:
A heavy-producing, mid-season sweet orange grafted for fast fruiting and high juice quality.
 
  • Performance: Ripens around the same time as Pineapple oranges, but is praised for being more cold-hardy and suffering from less fruit drop. 
  • Yield: It historically matches or exceeds other mid-season varieties (like Hamlin) in pounds of fruit solids per acre, yielding excellent, highly-valued crops.
