There are three major types of tangerines from the Western growing areas: Tangerines, Mandarins and Tangelos:
Tangerines - available around Thanksgiving, sometimes sold with stems and leaves attached. These include the Fairchild and Dancy varieties.
Mandarins - have a light orange color and a complex, sweet flavor. The Satsuma, Honey and Royal are the three major Mandarin varieties.
Tangelos - a cross between a grapefruit and a tangerine. They are noted for their juiciness and mild, sweet flavor. Orlandos and Minneolas are popular Tangelo varieties.

In Santa Barbara the Algerian Tangerine trees produce the sweetest fruit. Not tart at all. They are wonderful!

Well, the only ones I'm familiar with are "Cuties" and "Honeybells", which are very very sweet. You can get a tangerine hybrid, though and I think its called a Tangelo.
