Answer:
Spanish travelers introduced the sweet orange into the American continent. On his second voyage in 1493, Christopher Columbus may have planted the fruit in Hispaniola. Spanish missionaries brought orange trees to Arizona between 1707 and 1710, while the Franciscans did the same in San Diego, California, in 1769. In the United States, most oranges are grown in Florida and California. In Florida, oranges are a $9-billion-a-year industry, according to the Florida Department of Citrus. More than 80 percent of the orange juice produced in the United States is made from Florida oranges.
