The Moroccan sweet citron (Hebrew: אֶתְרוֹג מָרוֹקָנִי) was first described in detail by Professor Henri Chapot in his article named Un curieux cedrat Marocain (1950). He discovered that the acidity in the more common citrons or lemons is represented by violet pigmentation on the outer side of the flower blossom and also by the new buds that are reddish-purplish.
