Most pomeloes are folded in the shape of seven-pointed, hexagonal or five-pointed stars, with yellow or yellow-green skin, densely covered with fur, wrinkles and small pits. Generally, Huazhou pomelo is processed into seven-pointed shape, which is commonly called "seven-clawed red"; It is processed into pentagonal or hexagonal. "Wujiao" is commonly called "Big Five Claws", and "Lixjiao" is commonly called "Liu Claw Red". It has a slightly fragrant odor and a bitter taste. Mainly contains naringin.

The soil of Huazhou is rich in the mineral stone (瀞石), which is a medicine for treating stubborn phlegm and phlegm. The power of resolving phlegm is stronger than that of orange red, but the power of promoting qi and strengthening the spleen is not as good as that of orange red. Clinically, it is mostly used for coughs with turbid phlegm, white-colored phlegm and sticky phlegm that are difficult to cough.
