The only pummelos I have ever seen mail order are chandler, valentine, red shaddock?, and hirado butan.  If you come across any others I am interested also.

沙田柚。it is not available in US.  If you are lucky enough, maybe you can find it in Asian market.

I will be submitting my very good tasting pumello seedling tree to CCPP budwood program. So, maybe in 2 years you can buy some budwood from them. I have done taste comparision with my Thong Dee, Reinking, Chandler, Mato Buntan, and I think it tastes better than these. If it's accepted, the budwood will be available to the public, just need to pay budwood cost to UCR, CCPP program. Also plan to submit my Seedless Variegated valencia orange with Yellow skin (SVY).

Wondful! Thank you
What date is the fruit usually ripe at?

Fruit harvest/ripening depends on your location and the variety of the citrus.

Fruit harvest/ripening depends on your location and the variety of the citrus. You can look it up here in the citrus variety collection (UCR).

Yes I understand.
I would like to know what date your pomelo is ripe by under your conditions.

I have many different pomelos, they ripen starting in November, all the way to March. The fruits from the seedling pomelo tree ripens in Jan.
