Sweet Grapefruit also referred to as Marsh White Grapefruit has a naturally sweet flavor with very little tartness due to it not developing strong acidic flavors. This makes the White Grapefruit a household favorite for uses in cooking, juicing, specialty cocktails and deserts. In late winter and early spring they will fill the air with citrus blossom fragrance making these a perfectly welcome addition to any landscape.
