Quantity: 1 plant
Container: 4X4X6 Container
Seeds were imported from Colombia. Mamoncillo is a large, spreading but slow-growing evergreen tree with a frondose crown. It can reach a height of 20 meters. The bole can be 30 - 60cm in diameter, usually slightly angled and fluted. The edible fruit is popular within the plant's native range, where it is often gathered from the wild. The tree has also been cultivated, probably since before the Europeans got to S. America, and the fruit is often found for sale in local markets. Because of its leathery skin, the fruit remains fresh for a long time and ships well, so it is also sometimes found in ethnic markets in other countries. The fruit is juicy, aromatic and somewhat sweet with a pleasant, acid flavor. A sweet and gelatinous pulp with a grape-like flavor. Usually eaten out of hand, they can also be cooked in pies, jams and jellies etc
