The orange tree comes from Asia. In the past, these plants grew in China and India. The orange came to Europe through the Arabs.

A bitter orange grows in the Versailles garden, which was planted in 1421.
The most popular are sweet oranges (citrus sinensis), also known as Chinese. Their fruit goes to stores and is the raw material for popular juice. In the perfume industry, however, the real "gold vein" is bitter orange (citrus aurantium). It is also often known as Seville oranges, green or sour.
