Step into the world of Xinhui tangerine peel and you'll find two mysterious and ancient varieties of citrus: tangerine and mandarin. They are like the "twins" of the Xinhui citrus world, although they have the same roots, but their personalities are very different. So, in the battle of collecting tangerine peels, which "warrior" should you choose?

Mandarin orange: ancient and pure

Looking back on the long history, Xinhui citrus was planted hundreds of years ago thanks to the twining technology. This technique is like an "operation" on citrus, where the appropriate shoots are selected, the skin is peeled off, and then wrapped in straw and pond mud to be transplanted after the roots of the citrus are rooted. The citrus grown in this way is called "ring-branched orange". The roots of the mandarin orange are unique "chicken feet roots", which are weak and need to be cared for. Although its fruit is small and thin, it is full of aroma and excellent taste and medicinal value.

Barge orange: modern and efficient

The mandarin orange is cultivated by grafting technology. Through "close contact" with the branches of other plants, it not only retains the excellent characteristics of the parent parent, but also has the advantages of the body. Xinhui mandarin generally uses red lemon as the rootstock and tea mandarin as the ear graft. This citrus has become the mainstream of the market due to its high yield, strong resistance to pests and diseases, and low management costs. Although its fruit is larger and the skin is slightly thicker, it still performs well in terms of taste and medicinal value.

Although the yield is low and high, it is highly regarded for its pure variety and excellent taste medicinal value. Although the yield is high and the people are close to the people, its taste and medicinal value should not be underestimated.
