NOVA
(CLEMENVILLA, SUNTINA) Resulting from the cross between
Fina Clementine and Orlando tangelo. The fruit is medium-large
for a mandarin, good flavour and internal quality. It has
an attractive orange to reddish-orange colour. Peeling is
not so easy due to the firmness of the fruit, the thin rind
and its tight adhesion, but once started it is easily completed
with no oiling of the hands in the process. Moreover, virtually
all the albedo is removed with the rind, leaving the segments
as clean as the best Clementine. It has no puffing problems,
its fruit is seedless. And has good preservation.
Harvest
period in Uruguay is from mid of May to mid of June and it
can be degreened without inconveniences although it is not
essential. This is the difference with Clementine the Nules.
