You can leave your Oranges on the tree till you use them. Commercial growers leave Valencia oranges on the tree for a full year. I find those left on the tree a full year to be the largest and sweetest. When the oranges are done they will shrivel up and drop off. So leave them on the tree till you need them. That way they stay fresh and continue getting sweeter. It is natures way of storage. Enjoy.
