Ripening from mid-winter to early-spring, Citrus grapefruit 'Cutler's Red' boasts a large fruit with deep-orange flesh and a sweet juicy flavour with a touch of zing. The skin is tinged with red. This evergreen plant thrives in sunny locations with fertile, well-drained soil and benefits from adequate watering, especially in hot and dry summers. However, it can withstand temperatures down to -3C. Citrus grapefruit 'Cutler's Red' originated from Kerikeri in the 1970's, from the parent plant Citrus grapefruit that is native to Barbados.

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.
