New Fruits From Old
OME interesting new citrus fruits have recently arrived in New Zealand, having been sent to the Horticultural Section of the Plant Diseases Division by the United States Bureau of Plant Industry. Varieties of tangeloa cross between the mandarin and the American grapefruit-are under observation at the Auckland research station and already two or three good varieties have fruited. The hybrids range in flavour from straight _ grapefruit to straight mandarin, with a number of attractive intermediate tastes. Some varieties are indistinguishable from sweet oranges. (For more news of plant research work, see article on pp. 10-11.)
