Orange tree
Orange Tree
Orange trees are a type of fruit tree found throughout the world of Gielinor, known for producing ripe oranges when grown to maturity. These trees add vibrancy to the landscape, with their bright green leaves and distinct orange fruits that hang gracefully from the branches, making them a sight for any player traversing the region.
Location
Orange trees can be located in several regions of Gielinor, including:
- Just south of the Tree Gnome Stronghold.
- In the Taverley area, east of the Taverley Dungeon entrance.
- South of the Farming Guild, which is convenient for players focusing on farming skills.
Growing Process
To grow an orange tree, players must first acquire an orange sapling. This sapling can be obtained from a few sources, including:
Once you have a sapling, follow these steps:
- Find a suitable patch of soil, typically found in the areas mentioned above.
- Use the orange sapling on the desired soil patch.
- Water the sapling regularly, keeping it healthy.
- After approximately 8 hours of growth, the orange tree will mature and bear fruit.
Harvesting
Once the orange tree has matured, players can pick oranges from the tree. Each fully grown tree yields:
- Up to 3 oranges per harvest.
- The potential for additional yields if the player has certain farming levels or perks.
Oranges are valuable for various uses, including cooking and making potions, and can be sold on the Grand Exchange for profit.
Farming Experience
Growing and harvesting orange trees provide players with Farming experience points, contributing to their skill level and unlocking further gardening options. Players receive:
60 Farming experience upon planting the sapling, and an additional 15 experience points for each fruit harvested.
Visual Aesthetics
The orange tree stands tall with a bushy canopy, an inviting sight in the lush surroundings. The round, brilliant oranges contrast beautifully with the dark green leaves, offering not only a productive farming option but also an appealing feature of Gielinor‘s diverse ecosystems.
Tips for Players
To maximize your experience and yields from orange trees, consider the following:
- Use super compost to enhance your chances of a successful harvest.
- Check for any farming-related events or bonuses in your area.
- Keep an eye on your Farming levels to unlock even more productive tree varieties.
With their bright colors and usefulness in both cooking and potion-making, orange trees are a worthwhile addition to any player’s farming endeavors in Old School RuneScape.
