Pouteria Butyrocarpa - Butter Sapota

Seeds were imported from Brazil. Reddish trunk. When the trunk is bruised it smells like almonds. It is endemic in the "Hileia Baiana" region, and is only cultivated in botanical collections. The fruits pulp is pasty, and is rich in oil with a very pleasant flavor. The fruit can contain 1-3 seeds. This is a highly sought after and somewhat hard to grow Pouteria for some. Seeds are fresh and viable. Will be shipped in humid vermiculite.
