Sapodilla

Sapodilla, scientifically known as Manilkara zapota, is a tropical fruit tree native to Central America and Mexico. It is highly valued for its deliciously sweet and caramel-like fruit, which has a custard-like texture. The fruit is commonly referred to as sapodilla or chikoo.

The fruit has a rough, brownish skin that becomes softer and darker as it ripens. When fully ripe, the skin can be easily peeled to reveal the creamy, brownish flesh inside.

Sapodilla has a unique flavor profile that combines sweetness with hints of caramel, pear, and brown sugar. The flesh is smooth, juicy, and has a granular texture similar to that of a pear. It is typically enjoyed fresh, either on its own or incorporated into desserts, smoothies, and ice creams.

To grow Sapodilla, a warm and tropical climate is necessary. The tree requires well-draining soil and thrives in full sun exposure. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods. Sapodilla trees are known for their resilience and can tolerate various soil conditions.

Interesting Fact: Sapodilla trees have a fascinating history and have been cultivated for centuries. They were introduced to various tropical regions around the world by Spanish explorers and have since become popular in many countries, including India, Thailand, and the Philippines.

In conclusion, Sapodilla is a tropical fruit known for its exceptionally sweet and caramel-like flavor. With its creamy texture and unique taste, it is a favorite among fruit lovers. Whether enjoyed fresh or used in culinary creations, Sapodilla adds a touch of tropical indulgence to any menu.

​​​​​​​Dead or Alive?

Plants die. So, to determine if your plant is still among the living, scratch a small area of bark on the trunk. You can rub it with a coin or fingernail. If you see brown or black underneath, then the plant is dead. If you see green, then the plant is alive and will leaf out again. If the time is fall through spring, the plant is likely in full or partial dormancy. If the time is during the growing season, then the leaves may have temporarily dropped as a self pruning measure. This acts as a reset switch for the plant and is normally just temporary.
