Chandler Pummelo Tree

Large, Unique Citrus That's Easy to Grow (And Delicious to Eat)

Few citrus make a statement quite like the Chandler Pummelo Tree. Each large fruit can reach the size of a small melon, with a smooth yellow rind and juicy pink flesh on the inside. Unlike grapefruit, the Chandler is sweet and mild, with just enough acidity to keep each bite refreshing.

This California-bred hybrid is ornamental with a vigorous, open canopy of glossy leaves. In the spring, lush greenery and fragrant blossoms come alive in the garden. When grown without a pollinator, the Chandler Pummelo produces mostly seedless fruit, making it an easy-to-grow variety for fresh eating.

Harvested in late fall through winter, Chandler Pummelos peel easily and separate into firm, tender segments. The rind is bitter (which is best removed before eating), but the interior is sweet and brightens salads, salsas, and other culinary creations. Plus, its impressive size makes it a centerpiece for a fruit bowl or other table decorations.

Hardy in warm climates and adaptable to containers in cooler regions, Chandler Pummelo is a versatile citrus choice for patios or backyards. It’s self-fertile, drought-tolerant once established, and generous in production. Grow yours today for a steady supply of delicious, oversized fruit!
