It was developed in the 1950's at the UC Citrus Experiment Station, but then escaped into public orchards. It is a white-fleshed tri-specific citrus hybrid between a 'Frua' hybrid mandarin ('Dancy' mandarin × 'King tangor'), and a Siamese Sweet pommelo. This makes it 1/4 King tangor, 1/4 Dancy tangerine, and 1/2 Siamese Sweet Pommelo. Mandelo stands for its ancestors mandarin and pommelo.
