Drawn to the sweet-smelling blossoms, insects use to enter the flower and unwillingly transfer pollen from one bloom or plant to another. Gusts of wind help to pollinate orange trees as well: Wind blow pollen grains from of blooms, that in the end fall inside the orange tree flower.

  • Pollination for citrus trees generally happens when their flowers start to bloom. This use to happen from early winter throughout late spring. Once pollinated, it can take from five to eighteen months to produce viable fruit and ready to be harvested. Most citrus fruit can be left on the tree for large periods of time after being fully grown without the danger of over-ripening.
