Fruit trees do take a lot of work and tending to. I am keeping my lemon and my navel orange. They bear a reasonable amount of fruit that comes ripe in late winter and they are not as messy at the grapefruit. I had grapefruit falling on the ground constantly, then the fruit rats would come. It was supposed to be a “dwarf”. That’s a laugh. The tree got huge and that one tree probably gave us 150 to 200 grapefruit each winter. What is anyone going to do with that much grapefruit? You can’t give the things away. LOL
Are the grapefruits on Your tree ruby reds? I love those but not the pinks very much.
