The Pomelo. —Growing the Pomelo for market is a development of the past fifteen or tw«ity 
years; but large quantities of this fruit are now shipped from the State and its culture is rapidly ex 
tending. It has proved popular in the general market and its culture is very profitable. Its range of 
adaptability is about the same as that of the orange. Most of the older trees were planted before 
named varieties were introduced. The above list comprises the leading varieties now generally 
planted.
