Citrus x paridisi ‘Rio Red’ produces delicious orange-sized grapefruits with reddish-orange flesh and a yellow rind flushed with salmon. It is a good producer of medium to heavy crops. Great for juice and fresh eating. All of our citrus are grafted onto C-35 citrange, trifoliate orange, or other semi-dwarfing rootstock which confer good hardiness and production while reducing overall tree size.
