    Yes they do. And those trees would be located in a citrus grove. Believe it or not, there are bigger fruits than grapefruits that grow on trees. Those would be pommades or breadfruits. Here in Florida we even grow Ponderosa lemons the size of grapefruit.

    No, they aren't too big for trees and grapefruits do grow on trees. They're one of the orange's relatives so they can grow on trees like oranges.

    Yes, They do grow on trees...

    If they were watermelons I would think they might be a little heavy, but a grapefruit are not as big as you think... maybe the bigger ones are around the size of a softball.

    Yes, they grow on trees. If you think they're too big for trees, how would they fit onto a BUSH?? Citrus fruits all grow on trees or bushes

    They grow on trees in orchards, like most citrus fruits. They are large, but the tree branches are large, too, so no problem!
