How big do pomelos grow?

Pomelos are the largest citrus fruit, typically weighing 2-4 pounds each. They're much larger than grapefruits with a thicker, easier-to-peel rind.

How long until my pomelo tree produces fruit?

Grafted pomelo trees from Ivy Paradise typically begin fruiting within 2-4 years. Our more mature specimens may produce fruit sooner.

What's the difference between pomelo and grapefruit?

Pomelos are sweeter and less acidic than grapefruits, with a thicker rind and drier, firmer segments. They're actually one of the original citrus species from which grapefruits descended.

What climate do pomelo trees need?

Pomelos thrive in USDA Zones 9-11, needing full sun and protection from frost. They prefer well-draining soil and are more cold-sensitive than some other citrus.
