The Oro Blanco, has a golden yellow peel with sweet, pale yellow flesh.\u003c\/strong\u003e  This fruit is the product of cross-pollinating a seedy grapefruit variety and an acid-free pomelo variety. Oro Blanco, meaning \"white gold\" in Spanish, is just as sweet during its early stages of ripening as when its peel turns yellow. The segmented flesh is devoid of any color beyond its pale-yellow tones. It lacks acidity, making it far sweeter than other varieties. When ripe, the Oro Blanco has a golden yellow peel with a bitter, thick rind, and pith up to a 1\/2 inch deep. Its flesh is tender, juicy, seedless, and sweet with a large hollow core.

The rind frequently develops a reddish blush, especially where two fruits grow against each other. The flesh is juicy and well-pigmented, with the darkest color next to the segment membranes.

Also known as “Redblush” grapefruit or just “Ruby” grapefruit. The Ruby Red is a fast-growing tree that can reach 20 to 25 feet tall and wide when planted in well-drained loam to sandy loam soil. Like other varieties of grapefruit, it is particularly frost sensitive, and its fruit can be damaged when temperatures drop below 29 degrees Fahrenheit. However, late autumn is when grapefruits are ready to pick. Mature fruit may be left on the tree and, in fact, will sweeten throughout the winter. This method enables you to “store” the fruit for a longer period than if you picked it all at once. The downside is that storing on the tree reduces the yield the succeeding year. So, late fall into the winter or early spring is when to harvest this grapefruit. \u003cstrong\u003ePick up in September - Plant in October.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FT - Citrus Trees","offers":[{"title":"5 gallon","offer_id":48513042645175,"sku":"CP-Gra-Rub-05","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 gallon","offer_id":48513042677943,"sku":"CP-Gra-Rub-15","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/2441\/2599\/files\/rubyredgrapefruit.jpg?v=1780363869"},{"product_id":"cp-pummelo","title":"Pummelo, Red","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRed PUMMELO\/POMELO* is the largest citrus fruit at about 6 to10” wide. \u003c\/strong\u003e(\u003cem\u003eCitrus maxima or Citrus grandis\u003c\/em\u003e) It is a natural (non-hybrid), citrus fruit from the family Rutaceae, similar in appearance to a large grapefruit, native to South and Southeast Asia. The pomelo is one of the original citrus species from which the rest of cultivated citrus have been hybridized. The popular fruit is used in many festive celebrations throughout Southeast Asia. Typically, the fruit is pale green to yellow when ripe, with sweet white (or, more rarely, pink or red) flesh, and a very thick albedo (rind pith). It is a large citrus fruit, 15–25 centimeters (5.9 to 9.8 in) in diameter, usually weighing 1–2 kilograms (2.2 to 4.4 lb). Leaf petioles are distinctly winged. The typical pomelo is much larger than the grapefruit and has a much thicker rind. It tastes like a sweet, mild grapefruit (believed to be a hybrid of Citrus maxima and the orange). The flesh has none, or very little, of the common grapefruit's bitterness. The enveloping membranous material around the segments is bitter, considered inedible, and usually discarded.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FT - Citrus Trees","offers":[{"title":"5 gallon","offer_id":48513037402295,"sku":"CP-Pum-Red-05","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 gallon","offer_id":48513037435063,"sku":"CP-Pum-Red-15","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/2441\/2599\/files\/PumelloRed.jpg?v=1780362891"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/2441\/2599\/collections\/Oro-Blanco-Grapefruit2_opt.jpg?v=1783183154","url":"https:\/\/store.urbanfarm.org\/collections\/citrus-grapefruit.oembed","provider":"UrbanFarm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
