The Sugar Belle is a patented citrus hybrid developed by the University of Florida, known for its iconic bell-shaped fruit, and intense sweetness. A cross between a Clementine and a Minneola tangelo, it is easy to peel, highly juicy, and prized for its high tolerance to citrus greening (HLB)
Characteristics
  • Flavor: Rich and sweet with a well-balanced tartness.
  • Appearance: Deep orange-red, bell-like shape (similar to a Honeybell).
  • Seeds: Generally seedless to few seeds.
  • Harvest Season: Late fall through winter.
  • Cold Hardiness: Good cold tolerance into the upper 20s (°F).
  • Tree Size: 10 to 15 feet tall (can be kept smaller by pruning). 
  • Growing & Availability
    Sugar Belle trees thrive in USDA Hardiness Zones 8–11 and require full sun and well-drained soil. The variety is protected by a plant patent (PP21,356), and commercial tree sales include a royalty fee.
    We also have these available in a 3 gallon.
