The grapefruit is a subtropical citrus tree known for its relatively large, sour to semi-sweet, somewhat bitter fruit. The interior flesh is segmented and varies in color from pale yellow to dark pink/red. Grapefruit is a citrus hybrid that originated in Barbados in the 18th centuryGrapefruit trees grow best in loose, well-drained soil. They do not tolerate slow-draining, heavy soil. Long periods in moist, clay and clay-like soil will quickly kill a grapefruit tree. The best soil for grapefruit trees is somewhat sandy in texture and with the ability to clump when moist.

Grapefruits, like oranges and other citrus fruits, are high in vitamin C. In fact, one whole, medium grapefruit provides you with 100% of your daily requirement for vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that is great for your immune system and can help you fight off viruses and bacteria that can cause disease.
