The Tangelo
The tangelo is a citrus fruit that is a hybrid of a tangerine and either a pomelo or a grapefruit. Hybrid plants are created when two different plants are bred together to create something new and different. Sometimes this is done to create a stronger variety, such as disease-resistant corn. Other reasons include pleasure, as seen in flower varieties. Challenge your students to discover the origin of peppermint.
