An oroblanco or sweetie (Citrus grandis Osbeck × C. Paradisi Macf.) is a cross between an acidless pomelo and a white grapefruit. It is slightly larger in size than a grapefruit but has fewer seeds and is sweeter. When ripe its thick rind is bright green or golden in color. The oroblanco fruit has a similar taste to the scent of its flowers. The tree does not grow in cold conditions but it has a tendency to adapt to its environment very fast and is a vigorous grower.
