Orange blossom is the fruit of the bitter orange tree, a thorny shrub. It has been used in food and medicine for thousands of years. The essential oil from the flowers is also called neroli, and the trees are sometimes referred to as bigarade or bitter orange trees. The trees spread throughout India during the early Christian era, and were introduced to the Mediterranean region by the Crusaders. The Moors grew them extensively, which is why they are nicknamed the Seville orange.
This tree, originating in Asia’s tropical regions, grows in all tropical and subtropical regions today.
