    I started my pink grapefruit tree from a seed 5 years ago on a dashboard of a school bus I was driving in PA. This past year 2007, it flowered for the first time, when finished it had little grapefruits, however it dropped all of them. Then it had a growing spurt and pushed its roots out through the side of the pot. Then we moved to Townsend, GA, I planted it out in the front yard, it got hit bad with a freeze, the leaves all fell off, I thought I lost my tree. Well, in the spring it came out in full leaf, with alot of dead. I snipped off all the dead but it looks good now. Do you think it is going to blossom this year and will it ever produce fruit????

    Yes it will produce fruit some time in the future. As it is already the middle of May, it is getting less likely that it will bloom this season. - Millet
