Grapefruit - Oro Blanco
The Oro Blanco Grapefruit is thick skinned and is a popular, nearly seedless, grapefruit hybrid with white flesh. This fruit is produced from huge fragrant blossoms and large glossy-green foliage. As with many white fruits, the Oro Blanco's flesh is sweet and lacks any of the typical bitterness of a grapefruit. Oro Blanco is a vigorous, spreading tree with fantastic tasting grapefruit. Store at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, in the refrigerator for up to a month. Dwarf citrus trees can be successfully grown in containers throughout the United States. Allow for a few years of growth, so that you are not repotting every spring. Citrus do not need to be pruned, but you could prune them if they get too big and in the way. Oro Blanco is Spanish for white gold.
