Our dwarf pink grapefruit and dwarf blood orange seem to have created a really delicious fruit resembling a navel orange but tasting like a sweet pink grapefruit. The flesh also has a uniform pink color like the grapefruit, while our blood oranges are spotty red. My question is: Detailed instructions on propagating this interesting and delicious fruit? |

Contact your local agriculture extension agent. Its free, we pay their salary through our taxes. He or she will explain or show you or possibly conduct classes on grafting fruit trees.(and they generally like what they do!) Best of luck, hope this will make you a million! |

I have absolutely no background in agriculture, but based on pure common sense, I think that if these new fruits have seeds in them, planting the seeds should produce plants that, when they get old enough, should produce the same kind of fruits. Don't they? Anyway, good luck and I'm looking forward to the opportunity to taste one of your new fruits some day. Sam |
