'Morrison's Seedless' was developed in NZ around 1860 by Mr Morrison from Warkworth. Whilst it is mainly seedless, due to cross pollination, you may get the occasional pip. The flesh is juicy with a delicious flavour and fine texture.
Grapefruit originally in NZ from the Orient, which was one of the very early ships to come with settlers, via Australia in the 1800's. Grown then by Sir George Grey in his orchard on Kawau Island and then developed further by Mr Morrison. You could call it the grandfather of the popular Grapefruit 'Golden Special' as it was in turn developed further from 'Morrison's Seedless'.
