Citrus-Pummelo maxima ‘Chandler’

Citrus maxima is known as a pummelo or pomelo. It produces the largest of the citrus fruits and is the main ancestor of the grapefruit. ‘Chandler’ is a cross of the Siamese Pink and Siamese Sweet pummelos producing large to very large, almost round fruit with yellow rinds, sometimes pink-flushed, and light to dark pink, sweet, juicy, firm flesh with some acidity. The flowers have a beautiful fragrance. 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.
