Frost in Riverside, California, the Allspice Tangelo is a cross between an Imperial grapefruit and a Willowleaf mandarin. Until now, this variety had never been officially released to the public. It is an excellent choice for backyard growers who want to enjoy a historic citrus variety with a distinct, spicy flavor profile that you cannot buy in grocery stores.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote style=\"margin: 24px 0; padding: 12px 20px; border-left: 4px solid #1a1a1a; background-color: #f9f9f9; font-style: italic; color: #444444; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003eMy Personal Take:\u003c\/strong\u003e Although never officially released, this variety somehow escaped into the hobbyist community. While many who tasted it loved the unique, spicy flavor and wanted to grow it, trading uncertified cuttings became a severe disease risk with the arrival of the Asian Citrus Psyllid and HLB in California. Backyard grafting of uncertified budwood made it a potential vector for spreading disease. It is a true fruitmentor exclusive, and I am happy to finally make it safely available to you as a certified disease-free tree.\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Flavor \u0026amp; Sensory Experience\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRich \u0026amp; Spicy Flavor:\u003c\/strong\u003e The flesh is notably tender and highly juicy, possessing a rich, complex, and distinctly tart, spicy flavor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpicy Fragrance \u0026amp; Aroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e The fruit is celebrated for its unique, rich flavor and distinctly spicy fragrance and aroma.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Backyard Advantage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePremium Semi-Dwarfing Rootstock:\u003c\/strong\u003e These trees are grafted onto a semi-dwarfing rootstock carefully chosen to impart high quality to the fruit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; color: #1a1a1a; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 0.5px; margin-bottom: 16px;\"\u003e\n  Variety Specifications\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 24px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eeeeee;\"\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 12px; font-weight: 600; color: #666666; width: 30%; background-color: #fafafa; vertical-align: top;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 12px; line-height: 1.4; vertical-align: top;\"\u003eTangelo (Imperial Grapefruit × Willowleaf Mandarin)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eeeeee;\"\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 12px; font-weight: 600; color: #666666; background-color: #fafafa; vertical-align: top;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 12px; line-height: 1.4; vertical-align: top;\"\u003eBred by Howard B.
