Notes and observations

OJB: Pomelit pummelo is similar to the Djeroek Deleema Kopjor of Indonesia. The tree grows vigorously, but is reported to be susceptible to branch breakage under heavy fruit loads. The fruit is round with a slightly flattened base. The rind is thin for a pummelo, greenish-yellow to yellow, and smooth. The pink flesh is tender and juicy with a finer texture than is typical of a pummelo. The fruits are seedy but of good flavor. Pomelit matures early and holds well on the tree.

Availability

No longer commercially available in California. This accession no longer has an approved budsource. Please refer to the CCPP for information on another approved budsource or to start a reintroduction inquiry. This selection was introduced to the US in a non-propagation agreement.
