Pixie tangerines are pale orange colored, moderately juicy, with lower acidity, and always seedless. Individual Pixie tangerines vary in shape, size and peel texture. In general, Pixies are small (1-3 inches in diameter), have a pebbly skin and are easy to peel with segments that separate easily from one another.  Typically available in April
