Product Abstract: The grapefruit tree was originally from Asia but it is now grown and harvested in the United States, France, Brazil, and Israel. The grapefruit tree itself is a large tree about 10m (30ft) tall, with glossy leaves, white flowers, and large pale-yellow fruits with pink flesh. The differences between the white and pink grapefruits are minor, but more pink grapefruit is produced because it is sweeter. The difference in cost is simply due to supply-and-demand.
