I came back off hols to find one of my Grapefruit seedlings has a small white flower. Very Happy

It's seed grown and is about 1 year old.. I know this is rare, but has anyone ever had anything similar and.. will I get a fruit?

Richard

Grapefruit does this fairly commonly. They usually do not set a fruit (although someone here has said they've had it happen), and they generally don't flower again, then, for 5-7 more years.
