About Ugli

Ugli, offered here under the name Ugly, should not be judged by its uneven skin. This large Jamaican citrus is valued for its juicy, sweet-tart flesh; its rugged appearance is part of its character rather than a measure of quality inside. It is eaten fresh or juiced.

Ugli or another variety?

Like Seminole, Ugli belongs to the tangelos, whose parentage combines mandarin and grapefruit, with the same indicative hardiness (-8 °C). Ortanique, another Jamaican citrus in the catalogue, is a tangor. To explore further, see our “Tangors and tangelos” category.

Frequently asked questions

Are Ugly and Ugli the same citrus?

Yes: it is the Ugli, offered here under the name Ugly.

Is its uneven skin a flaw?

No. Its rugged appearance is part of its character and says nothing about quality inside: the flesh is juicy.

What is its parentage?

It is a tangelo, a hybrid of mandarin (Citrus reticulata) and grapefruit (Citrus × paradisi).
