Like the southern region, the northern region of Vietnam has many species of pomelos. One of its most famous is the Phuc Trach pomelo from Ha Tinh Province.
This kind of big grapefruit is cultivated in Phuc Trach, Huong Trach, Huong Do and Loc Yen communes of Huong Khe District. The tree is said to appear in Phuc Trach Commune about 200 years ago. At the moment, about 1,600ha in the district are devoted to growing this tree.
The Phuc Trach pomelo (Citrus grandis Osbeck) is a perennial. From its sixth year of growth, the tree gives about 90-120 fruits in a season. It yields the most at the age of 11-15. The older a tree is, the tastier its fruit is. This tree gives fruit from the seventh to the ninth lunar months of each year.
Phuc Trach pomelos have round fruits. With yellow-green peel and a weight of about 1-1.5kg, each fruit has 14-16 segments. Its flesh is pink. The flesh contains a lot of juice and is crispy. It is sweet and a bit pungent but not sour nor bitter. However, the fruit is not as good if the tree is grown elsewhere.
Good news is that the Huong Khe Farmers Association was granted a trademark certificate for the Phuc Trach pomelo in September 2004 by the Vietnam Office of Intellectual Property Rights. Pomelos with the Phuc Trach trademark were officially introduced the first time by Dong Nam Co., at a pomelo festival held in Ho Chi Minh City from September 15-17. At this event, hundreds of fruits were sold to guests and customers.
