Star Ruby grapefruits are globular and slightly flattened, growing to a size of 15 cm in diameter and 12 cm in height. Their rind is yellow-orange with a blush of rose indicating ripeness. The peel is medium-thick and bittersweet laden with volatile oils that intensify when the rind is punctured or zested, releasing a bouquet of citrus aromatics. Star Ruby grapefruit has the darkest flesh of all the red grapefruit varieties. The redder the flesh the sweeter the flavor. The ruby-red pulp is juicy with a sweet-tart flavor and contains few if any, seeds.
