Pomelo

The cimboa, also called grapefruit, or natal orange, or confused with its crossing with the common sweet orange, the grapefruit is a citrus fruit, fruit of a tree of the family Rutaceae with 5 to 8 m of height that vegetates and produces satisfactorily in regions of the most varied ecological conditions. It appears to be an ancient wild species, native to Southeast Asia, including from Malaysia. The fruits can be consumed in the natural, lending itself to the industrialization, from where different products such as juices, essential oils and pectin result. This is the largest of citrus fruits, and can weigh up to one to two kilos.
