I think so.  It seems to be of interest to people who want to preserve the plant habitats there.  https://victoriaavenueforever.org/

Do you think we could distinguish between fancy and unfancy valencias?

Possibly by taste?  Most of the oranges I eat taste unfancy.

My phone could tell me. I (and my entire family) seem to be severely directionally impaired.

Yes, I was the one who peeled it off the box.  I was lifting full boxes of plants and pouring them into bins where women would sort them out, or put them in packages for mailing.  I even had a job title.  I was called a roustee, though I'm not sure how it was spelled.  Very hard, laborious work.  I doubt I could do it now.  Anyway, that was when I started to collect the vegetable labels.  The ladies were kind of tickled at how I would empty a box, peel the label off and then pick up another full box of plants to empty into their bins.

Ah, good story!
