GRAPEFRUIT ‘CUTLER RED’
Ripens: July - Dec
Deep orange coloured rind and a slightly rounder fruit shape similar to Golden Special. Vigorous and large, producing good yields of medium-large fruit with orange-yellow flesh. Fruit ripen July-Dec. (GOOD FOR: DRY, FLOWERS, FRUIT, HEDGE, SUN, WIND)
Our experience using these in the Auckland region:
I personally prefer the tarter taste of the Grapefruit Golden Special, but, if you like sweeter fruit then these are a good option. Our Cutler's Red tree is incredibly prolific. Full marks to it for productivity. Make sure the soil doesn't get too wet in the winter.
