FAQ

Which plant does this Orange verdict cover?

Citrus sinensis. The ASPCA's Orange entry gives the scientific name "Citrus sinensis". This verdict covers that species; plants with other scientific names are not covered and are not graded here. Check the full scientific name on the tag.

Does this Orange verdict cover Orange Star or Orange Day Lily?

No. The ASPCA's Orange Star entry gives "Guzmania lingulata minor", and its Orange Day Lily entry gives "Hemerocallis graminea". Those entries name different plants from Citrus sinensis. They are outside this page's verdict and are not graded here.
