Citrus Pictures
Citrus species have been cultivated since ancient times. This, combined with their ease of hybridization, has resulted in countless varieites and types of citrus. Some of the more well-known are included here. Citrus classification can be muddled, and there is disagreement on a number of citrus fruits whether or not to differentiate them as unique species or simply varieties of a single species.
