Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Grapefruit" in English language version.
The pomelo is now marketed under the name "grape-fruit," which is a misnomer. This is confusing and misleading. The name "grape-fruit" was given to this fruit in Florida, as it hangs on trees in clusters resembling the grape, but has no relation to it whatever. Growers and shippers should drop the name "grape-fruit" and apply to it the name pomelo, which is popular, and botanically correct.
The Development of the Gully - The Gully was once part of a plantation owned by a Welshman called General William Asygell Williams over 200 years ago. Hence the name "Welchman Hall" gully. It was this man who first developed the gully with exotic trees and an orchard. Interestingly, the grapefruit is originally from Barbados and is rumoured to have started in Welchman Hall Gully.
