It has been planted in a half wine barrel and is growing really well. Recent new growth has been a bit pale but we have fertilized it, so hope that improves things.

I don't really know what variety this is. Just that Franz Honneff was a close friend many years ago. I'm sure this is a traditional grapefruit of many years.
