honey tangerine

noun honey tangerines

A murcott; a hybrid tangerine (tangor) of unknown parentage, first grown in Florida. The name Honey tangerine is also common for Murcott tangerines, mainly in the United States; the designation Smith tangerine is also encountered.
A honey mandarin; a hybrid tangerine (tangor) bred in California from the "willowleaf" variety mandarin orange (Citrus reticulata) and "king" tangor. It has seeds, and it can't be easily peeled like early tangerines. So why bother with this lumpy thing when you can buy other tangerines that are less trouble? Because the honey tangerine is known as the tangerine to wait for. It's the sweetest of the season.
