Curiosity about me
The important moments in your tree's life.
Let's start with introductions
A tree that grows from 5 to 10 meters tall, even if in some cases it can reach 15! The Pomelo is famous for its fruits, which are pear-shaped and can measure up to 30 cm in diameter and weigh up to 2 kg. On average, a plant that lives in ideal conditions can produce even 100 fruits per year.
Meaning
Originality
Pomelo, along with the Mandarin and Cedar, is known as one of the 3 species from which all known citrus fruit evolved.
How much CO2 I’ll absorb
My estimated CO2 absorption capacity is based on the first 10 years of my life*
Current absorption
- 0 kg

0 kg
2034
-100 kg
* The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate.
