Garut Oranges are a fruit variety grown in Indonesia's mountains and hilly areas in Garut Regency at Wanaraja, Samarang and Bayongbong Districts. These locations feature mountains or hilly areas, with highland views of more than 900 m (2,953 ft.) above sea level. Many kinds of fruits and vegetables compete for this growing area.
When Indonesia was a Dutch colony, Garut Oranges were considered one of Indonesia's most famous exotic fruits.
Garut Oranges have a good taste, good coloring, thick skin textures, and good aroma. Crops have been significantly damaged by Citrus Vein Phloem Degeneration (CVPD).

Famous quotes containing the words orange and/or fruit:
“A hook shot kisses the rim and
hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop
and for once our gangly starting center
boxes out his man and times his jump
perfectly, gathering the orange leather
from the air like a cherished possession”
—Edward Hirsch (b. 1950)
“Let those who go home tell the same story of you:
Of action with a common purpose, action
None the less fruitful if neither you nor we
Know, until the moment after death
What is the fruit of action.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
