La Plante Grapefruit
Partie de la plante: Zest
Origine: USA
The grapefruit is a cross between two other citrus fruits, the grapefruit tree (Citrus maxima) and the orange tree (Citrus sinensis). Like other citrus fruits, it belongs to the Rutaceae family. It’s a small tree that can reach 6 meters in height. It grows in sunny regions and is only cultivated in North America, Brazil, the West Indies and Israel.
Like the Mandarin, Lemon and Orange trees, Citrus Paradisii bears small white flowers in spring and then develops fruit. These ripen at the end of the year. They are then harvested to extract the precious essential oil from the peel.
Rich in limonene, Grapefruit essential oil is recognized for its detoxifying and draining properties. It is also renowned for its relaxing and soothing effects.
