Citrus bergamia, the bergamot orange, is a fragrant citrus fruit the size of an orange, with a yellow or green colour similar to a lime, depending on ripeness. Genetic research into the ancestral origins of extant citrus cultivars found bergamot orange to be a probable hybrid of lemon and bitter orange. Citron: Citrus medica
The tree produces large fruit, ellipsoid to very slightly obovate; basal area slightly depressed and radially furrowed; apical nipple suppressed or indistinct. The fruit is lemon-yellow when ripe. Its rind is very thick and fleshy, sweet with some bitter after-taste; surface rather rough, bumpy, and commonly somewhat ribbed.
The fruit is large, 15–25 cm (6–10 in) in diameter, [5] usually weighing 1–2 kilograms (2–4 pounds). It has a thicker rind than a grapefruit, and is divided into 11 to 18 segments. The flesh tastes like mild grapefruit, with a little of its common bitterness (the grapefruit is a hybrid of the pomelo and the orange).
Ponderosa lemon also has larger than average citrus flowers, and bears fruit throughout the year. When grown as an ornamental, it requires pruning to control the shape, and may be trained as a bush or tree. Ponderosa lemon is less cold-hardy than a true lemon. [5] It bears medium to large fruit with a thick and bumpy rind.
Lemonade fruit (Citrus limon x reticulata), otherwise known as Lemonade lemon, New Zealand lemonade or Unlemon [1] is a variety of sweet lemon citrus fruit, believed to be a hybrid between a mandarin orange and a lemon. It was first discovered in New Zealand in the 1980s as a chance seedling, [1] and is grown principally in the warmer parts of ...
The Moroccan citron was described by the Moroccan professor Henri Chapot, as being a sweet citron, meaning that its pulp is low in acid. He discovered that the acidity in the more common citrons or lemons, is represented by red on the inner coat of seeds specifically on the chalazal spot, violet pigmentation on the outer side of the flower blossom, and also by the new buds that are reddish ...

Meyer lemon fruits have a sweeter, less acidic flavor than the more common Lisbon or Eureka supermarket lemon varieties. [8] The pulp is a dark yellow and contains up to 10 seeds per fruit.
