This citrus fruit has rounded, regular foliage and dark green, ovate, persistent leaves with winged petiole. The large, white flowers are isolated or gathered in axillary racemes. The fruit is rounded or pear-shaped with light yellow skin and light or salmon pink pulp. The varieties are generally of American or Asian origin.

    Pedoclimatic needs

    Pomelos are plants suitable for hot climate areas and do not resist cold and intense frosts; in Italy they are grown in the south, on the islands and where temperatures do not fall below 0°/-2°C. Citrus fruits prefer loose and fertile soils, possibly with a good organic substance content and avoid excessively calcareous soils. Pomelos do not tolerate drought and during the dry season they must be watered and fertilized regularly.
