Mandarins, clementines, and oranges all boast impressive health benefits, and you may wonder whether they’re all variations of the same fruit.
Mandarins belong to the Citrus genus. It’s believed they originated in ancient China, which is how they got their name.
Their peel is deep-orange, leathery, and protects the sweet, juicy segments inside.
Mandarins grow on flowering small- to moderately-sized citrus trees. As they ripen, they change from a deep green to their recognizable orange color and grow to a width of about 1.6–3 inches (4–8 cm).
