| | Pummelo |
 | | Among the leading insect pests of pummelo in the Orient are a leaf miner, Phyllocnistis citrella; a flea beetle which attacks the leaves; a stinging red ant (Pheidologeton sp.) that damages roots, twigs, leaves and trunk, sometimes girdling and killing the tree. |  | | By 1696, the fruit was being cultivated in Barbados and Jamaica. |  | | Though the seeds of the pummelo are monoembryonic, seedlings usually differ little from their parents and therefore most pummelos in the Orient are grown from seed. |

 | | The pummelo is native to southern Asia and Malaysia, and it may have been introduced to China around 100 B.C. It is believed that Captain Shaddock brought seeds to the Western world in the late part of the 17th Century. |  | | Pummelos may flower 2 to 4 times in a year. |  | | The pummelo is considered to be tropical or near tropical and does well at low altitudes close to the sea. |

| | What is a pummelo fruit |
 | | Pummelos are produced from the pummelo tree, which is a tree that can grow to heights of up to 50 feet. |  | | Pummelos are also highly nutritious and are a good food source for dieters. |  | | Once you have purchased your pummelos, you can safely store them in your home for up to one week provided that the pummelos are kept in your refrigerator. |

 | | As a result the quality and quantity of production of pummelo are very low in farmers field as they are cultivating inferior trees grown from seeds. |  | | Pummelo is largely self-incompatible, and unlike other Citrus species pummelo does not produce nucellar seedlings. |  | | Pummelo or shaddock [Citrus grandis L. Osbeck synonym Citrus maxima (J. Burman) Merril] has been regarded as one of the ancestral species of the genus Citrus. |

 | | Many of the pummelos are decidedly lacking in strong grapefruit tastes, but then that may be to your advantage, if the taste of grapefruit doesn't turn you on. |  | | Grapefruits are probably natural hybrids between a "Sweet orange "Citrus sinensis and a "Pummelo" Citrus maxima, but their progeny were given the botanical description of Citrus paradisi in 1830 and most citrus authorities still use it. |  | | pummelo has the deepest maroon-coloured flesh and in common with most pummelos, lots of seeds. |

 | | A day later, the faustrimedin flower was carried to the pummelo flower and its pollen transferred to the stigma. |  | | My first attempt was using pollen from a red-fleshed fingerlime plant, Microcitrus australis sanguinea, on to the stigma of a Red Pummelo flower. |  | | As this was sticky, I left the whole faustrimedin flower in place rather than try and remove it. |
