Hybrid Tangelo Seedling (MOQ:5)

The Hybrid Tangelo Seedling (MOQ:5) is a high-yield citrus hybrid obtained from crossing tangerine (mandarin orange) and grapefruit (or pomelo). It combines the sweet, tangy flavor of tangerines with the juiciness and size of grapefruit, making it a profitable choice for commercial farmers and home gardeners alike. Key Features of Hybrid Tangelo Seedling (MOQ:5): Hybrid of tangerine and grapefruit Produces large, juicy, and sweet-tart fruits Early fruiting with high yield potential Suitable for both small-scale and commercial orchards Well-adapted to tropical and subtropical climates Characteristics: Vigorous root system for strong growth Resistant to common citrus pests and diseases (varies by management) Glossy green foliage with a healthy canopy Fruit peel is relatively smooth and easy to remove Long productive lifespan under proper care Advantages: High market value due to unique taste and consumer demand Extended shelf life compared to some citrus varieties Dual-purpose: consumed fresh or used for juice production Lower maintenance than many citrus varieties once established Boosts orchard diversity and profitability Applications: Commercial citrus farming for large-scale production. Home gardening and orchard establishment. Fresh fruit consumption, juicing, and processing. Agroforestry and mixed cropping systems. Fruit Characteristics: Hybrid tangelos combine the best traits of their parent species. Hybrid tangelos can vary in appearance depending on the specific cross. They typically have a juicy and sweet-tart flavor profile, with a distinctive citrus aroma. Tangelos often have loose, easily peelable skin like tangerines, but they tend to be larger due to the influence of pomelos or grapefruits. They may have a slightly flattened shape, with a bright orange or red-orange peel that may have a slight neck at the stem end, resembling a tangerine or a grapefruit. Adaptability & Yield : Hybrid tangelo seedlings are often bred for their high yield potential, producing a significant quantity of fruit per tree. This can make them economically attractive for commercial growers. They can tolerate a variety of soil types but generally prefer well-draining soil. Propagation: Hybrid tangelo seedling is often propagated through grafting onto rootstocks to ensure the desired fruit characteristics and traits are maintained. This allows for consistency in fruit quality and performance across different trees.
