Description
The tangerine originated in the region of Southeast Asia, it was seriously cultivated in China. It then made its way through the trade routes, throughout the Mediterranean. The name “tangerine” historically alludes to the port of Tangiers, possibly the source of tangerines being shipped throughout the western world. Tangerine stock in Hawaii were brought by Chinese gardeners and farmers who migrated to the Hawaiian Islands.
Tangerines are found in many Hawaii backyards. My friend Albert grew these in his backyard and gifted them to me today. It's the Hawaiian way.
