Tangelo trees are also known as Tangerine Trees.
This citrus fruit is a cross between a grapefruit and a tangerine with a distinctive and pronounced neck, very good colour and very aromatic. It has thin skin, is easy to peel and very juicy, but if harvested too soon will have less sugar and more acidity and if pollinated, will be seedy. Harvest is in February. The tree is very vigorous and may reach a large size but is less cold resistant than other varieties.
