With it's many uses both for health and for cooking, Red Grapefruit is a favorite of home garden enthusiasts for ease of growth and abundant yields. Flowering in late winter to early spring, these citrus trees will fill the air with a brilliant fragrance that can not be replicated. Essential oils found in the leaves themselves can be used for culinary and fragrance purposes as well. The sweet fruit holds on the tree for a long period of time giving you a larger window to enjoy fresh, ripe citrus fruit straight from the source. These are typically ready to eat and continue to get sweeter between late fall and early winter in the Southwest.

Red Grapefruit are evergreen trees that grow great throughout the Southwest and can even be planted in pots. These are small to medium fruit trees that work with all landscape styles and once established, become a water-wise tree handling periods of drought well. Citrus trees are easy to grow and require very little pruning to maintain their beautiful shape. Occasionally cutting off suckers at the bottom and removing any thinning or dead branches on the interior is enough to keep your trees healthy, growing strong, and bearing fruit in huge harvests!

Pro Tip: Frozen grapefruit juice cubes thrown in a blender make a great summertime smoothie that is super healthy too!
