An EGD may be performed therapeutically to control bleeding, remove tumors or polyps (growths), dilate narrowed areas in the upper GI tract (for example, esophagus), remove foreign objects, perform laser therapy, and place a percutaneous gastrostomy tube (a tube used for tube feeding into the stomach).
Navel oranges ripen in the winter and into the spring and early summer, while Valencia oranges begin ripening in the spring and are harvested through the summer. Mandarin Mandarins are more tolerant of cooler temperatures than are many varieties of sweet orange, and they require only moderate heat to ripen well, making them, along with lemons and limes, well suited to northern climates and cool coastal locales.
NAVELINA ORANGE (Citrus sinensis âNavelinaâ). Fruit ripens end of April into May, making it a fantastic early season navel orange, which is sweet, seedless and juicy. Fruit can be slightly oblong in shape and has a dark orange skin. The tree is compact and bushy.For those gardeners with space, planting a Navelina, Washington and Lanes Late will find themselves harvesting Navels for up to six months of the year.ANES LATE NAVEL ORANGE (Citrus sinensis âLanes Late Navelâ). Almost identical to the Washington Navel in all aspects apart from the fruit ripening a couple of months later, late Winter into early Spring. This makes it an ideal tree to plant alongside a Washington to extend the harvesting time of Navel oranges.
