Cocktail Grapefruit Hybrid
Tasted a lot better than the Oro Blanco on the same tree, has thinner rinds too. Only half of these remain on the tree, I have been sampling them every week. So far none have fallen even when we had strong winds.

How awesome is that, and in a perfect world where anything went, if everyone had one of those trees growing in their yard, no one would be lacking in servings for fruit per day! Joe you are the man!

Wow. I recently just got into citrus growing and I never thought grafting different types of citrus on one plant would work out! I actually got into citrus trees because I bought an Avocado tree and figured a lemon tree would be nice as well.
I think I will be more into citrus growing after seeing this post full of great pics of that amazing tree.
Keep posting those picture updates! Thanks! |

Does that mean you are starting over, at the new place, with a "1 n 1" tree?
