Red Texas Grapefruit - $50 (Metairie)

Rio Red Grapefruit trees in 5 gallon pots, 1 year old.
This is a sweet, juicy grapefruit.
Just as the Ruby Red Grapefruit was a mutation from the original grapefruit trees, the Rio Red Grapefruit is a mutation from the Ruby Red.
The Rio Red has a deeper color than the Ruby Red, it is less acidic, and is sweeter.
The Rio Red Grapefruit is also rounder in shape than most grapefruits as well as being juicier than the other variants.
This is a long way from the first grapefruits that were found to have whiteish flesh, very acidic taste, and extreme tartness.
