Narrative
According to Sauls (1998), "The two most widely planted navel orange varieties in Texas are 'Everhard' and 'N33E'. 'Everhard' is similar to the 'Baianinha Piracicaba' of Brazil, having rather smaller fruit that are oval to round. The navel is very small and closed, commonly being inconspicuous or absent altogether. The fruit is thin skinned, of very good flavor, and it reaches maturity in late September [in South Texas]." Additional information from Sauls (2008) states that "Everhard is a smaller fruit characterized by a very small or no navel; it is a consistent producer." According to the Acorn Springs Farms website, "While the 'Everhard' is typically more compact than the average 'Washington', comparative testing by Texas AandM University proved that the Everhard had more consistent (fruit) bearing levels and higher resistance to post-harvest decay than several other navel varieties. The Everhard Navel is so reliable, in fact, that the commercial citrus industry south of New Orleans purchased thousands of them to replace other navel varieties destroyed in a hurricane."
