LIVE PLANT GRAFTED 3ft Chrysophyllum cainito Purple camito Star Apple tree

Description: Height of the plant that I ship is about 3ftThis is grafted plant Almost every Jamaican child has fond memories of sitting under a star apple tree and eating the luscious fruit. Its official name is Chrysophyllum caimito and it takes its common name of star apple for the distinctive pattern that’s revealed when the fruit is cut in half. Star apples have sweet flesh and an appealing purple or green skin, depending on the variety.Star apples don’t fall from the tree when they’re ripe. They must be hand-picked and the fewer the seeds in the center, the sweeter the fruit tends to be. The taste of the aromatic fruit is known for its hints of apple, persimmon and lychee. In Spain the star apple tree is known as caimito maduraverde, the golden-leaf tree in France, and ajara and caimito in Portugal.The star apple has a long and distinguished history dating back to the 1500s when it was discovered growing in Peru by Spanish explorer, Cieza de Leon. From there, the tree was taken to the Caribbean, Guatemala, India, Panama, Philippines, and Zanzibar. The United States began obtaining star apple seeds from Jamaica in the late 1800s for cultivation in Florida and later in Hawaii. Origin: West Indies and Central America.Tree Height: 25 ft.Season: February-MayCold Hardiness: 28° - 30°FFruit Description: Fruit may be round to oblate to ellipsoid and 2-4 in. in diameter. Peel may be red-purple, dark-purple, or pale-green. Skin is smooth, glossy, and leathery. In purple fruits, the inner rind is dark purple, and in green fruits, white. Pulp is white, soft, and milky surrounding 6-11 seeds. Seeds contained in rubbery seed cells and surrounded by a gelatinous pulp. When cut transversely, the seed cells are seen to radiate outwardly from a central core, producing a star-shaped pattern. More Info: Caimito was observed growing by Spanish explorers in Peru during the 1500s. Seeds were introduced into Hawaii in 1901 and into Florida around 1887. Star apples must not be bitten into, since the skin and rind are inedible. When opening a star apple, one should not allow any of the bitter latex of the skin to contact the edible flesh.
