The Star Ruby Patio Grapefruit Tree produces grapefruits which are renowned for their striking appearance and exceptional flavor!

With each bite, you'll experience a burst of refreshing flavor that makes Star Ruby grapefruits a true delight for the senses. The stand out flavor and vibrant color of its fruits make the Star Ruby Patio grapefruit tree a top choice for those seeking an exquisite and fuss free citrus indulgence! To successfully cultivate this botanical rarity in Canada, they are easily grown in pots, which are moved indoors before frost and placed outdoors during the growing season on a sun drenched patio, balcony or deck. Adequate sunlight, well draining soil, and proper fertilization will ensure you get to reap a continued successful harvest. Harvesting time for grapefruits is fairly flexible. Grapefruits harvested early will have a higher acid content compared to ones that are allowed to ripen longer on the tree. The bright yellow/orange color combined with a nice weight, shiny skin and fragrant grapefruit smell of the fruit is the best indicator for harvest. With 2 main flushes of blooms in spring and fall as well as varying ripening times for each fruit this tree typically produces fruit year round, with peak fruiting occurring during the warmer months, allowing staggered picking through out the year. Note: the exact fruiting pattern may vary based on growing conditions and care.
