Pummelo - Carters Red (Grafted) 3/10

Edward3's Edible Fruits
Update: 418 days 1hrs

Comments: -

The Flick's Yellow pummelo which we have has very nice fruit so we decided to try the red pummelo variety as well. Has flowered well, but low fruit set and fruit drops off while still small. Suspect inadequate water. We finally got a few fruit in 2019 but found it took a very long time to ripen. The ffruit was quite bitter and not tasty, probably because not suited to Sydney climate. Not recommended. 

In 2023 have reworked the plant to multigraft - Cara Cara orange, washington navel and Lisbon lemon. Grafts growing very well and flowering already in 2024.

I have had my plant in for 18 months but it looks like the top of the brach is "wispy" almost like it has had too much water, any comments please. I can send pic of plant, thank yopu

I am not an expert but I am happy to take a look at your photo if you send it to my email address given at the top left. For some reason my tree this year does not look so healthy either and has only produced one fruit. Butu that could be due to the very dry spring we had end of 2015.

Update: 3240 days 19hrs

Flowers profusely but not much fruit set. Suspect competition from nearby trees for moisture. I have therefore movwill ed it to a new location after a good pruning. However, the tree has died back and was removed.

Height 1.5 metres

Growing: In the Ground

Qty: 1

Pest Control:

Spray with Lebaycid to control fruit fly. Not a serious problem but some spoilage can occur.
