Rutaceae Week: Citrus paradisi Maf. from California: Citrus paradisi Macfad., Bot. Misc. 1:304. 1830 Common name: Grapefruit
Fruit large like Citrus grandis, reaching 15 cm in diameter, rind much thinner and orange yellow in colour, leaves smaller and glabrous on veins and pulp vesicles more tightly packed.
Photographed from California Another confuser for me. It appears like mosambi – not sure if they are sold in Indian markets. Please ignore the last photograph. …, The broadly winged petiole is distinctive for both C. grandis and C. paradisi

Which Is this tree bearing flowers and a fruit ?
Saw it in Kakoijana village near Manas National Park, Guwahati. Date- 03.03.2014
May be some member of Rutaceae. Citrus sp.?,,,,,, Grape fruit! Citrus! The flower and fruit looks like Pomelo (Citrus grandis) to me. However i cannot be sure as i have not seen the flower and fruit of grape fruit(Citrus x paradisi). The shape of the fruit is a dead giveaway. While Pomelo is kind of pear shaped, grapefruit is usually fully round. Thanks … In Pomelo the petals look bit roundish while in grapefruit slightly elongated. Even the fruit doesn’t seem to be pear-shaped. It is almost round. I feel it should be paradisi but i would still like to confirm. It is not Citrus. The leaf-shape does not match. Uploading the few photos from my house. Yes C. paradisi looks good, C. grandis (now C. maxima) would have much larger fruit . References:
