Ruby Red Grapefruit Tree
Cultivate your own sweet, seedless Ruby Red Grapefruits with this easy-care tree. America's favorite citrus is simple to peel and often fruits during winter, offering a unique harvest when other varieties are dormant. This tree can even bear fruit in its first year, providing a lifetime of delicious citrus. It's suitable for container gardening in cooler climates, thriving on a patio and only needing protection during cold snaps. Opt for the Jumbo size for a more mature plant with established roots, ensuring quicker production and improved drought resistance. Plant in full sun with well-drained soil for optimal growth.
