In this first HD photo you can see the entire small orange tree that has a botanical name of Citrus Aurantium Myrtifolia, and a type of Sour Orange, this has a common name of the Myrtle Leaf Orange due to the leaves being similar to a common myrtle plant.
It is actually a far more compact orange tree than some varieties, so it is exceedingly well suited to being in a pot, however, it still does not like cold weather, and therefore, you will often find these at tourist attractions that have a dedicated Orangerie, such as where this one was located within the Jardin du Luxembourg.
Now this image shows a close up of the tourist information plaque located on the oak panelled wooden crate holding the Citrus Aurantium Myrtifolia, and as you can see it is numbered Pot 126, yet this particular Myrtle Leaf Orange tree is no doubt going to be re-potted in the next couple of years or so, as the green crates start to rot after around twelve years, which of course is not beneficial for the preservation of the plant itself.
