Peel, not pulp

English Wikipedia notes that the orange can be eaten fresh or processed for its juice or fragrant peel. AVM Herbals’ Orange Peel Powder is made from the peel, as its title says; the pulp and juice are other parts of the fruit.

The name on the listing

Kew’s record for Citrus × sinensis (L.) Osbeck is a synonym that maps to the accepted hybrid Citrus × aurantium f. aurantium. AVM Herbals’ listing keeps the spelling Citrus sinensis. Neither the listing nor this page makes any claim about a cultivar or about the source of a batch’s fruit.
