The bitter orange tree is a small evergreen that typically reaches a height of 10 feet in cultivation but may reach up to 20 feet when growing in the wild. It has a smooth brown trunk, stout branches and flexible green twigs with rather blunt thorns, and a more erect stature and compact crown than that of the sweet orange tree (Citrus sinensis). The fruits of Citrus aurantium are round or oval measuring 7-8 centimeters across, with a thick, heavily pitted peel that turns from yellow-golden to orange red on maturity. It comprises of 10 to 12 segments with a strongly acid pulp and numerous seeds, and like all citrus fruits the essential oil glands are found in tiny pits located within the peel. Bitter Orange was the first orange to be introduced to the New World, finding its way to Mexico in 1568 and South America later in 1587. The sweet orange was unknown throughout Europe until it was introduced from India by Portuguese traders, eventually becoming the more popular choice.
