Pouteria sapota-
Mamey Sapote

Cuban favorite, it is considered by Cubans to produce the best fruit in the world.

It is rather slow growing, medium size tree with a spreading crown. The fruit may be round, ovoid or elliptic, varies 3-9”, and ranges in weight from 1/2 to 5 lbs. It has rough, dark-brown, firm, leathery, semi-woody skin, and salmon-pink to deep-red, soft flesh, sweet and pumpkin-like in flavor. The fruit is used fresh, in milk shakes and ice cream. Tree loses its leaves around mid April. At that time fruit can be easily counted - both that year's crop and the next as well.

Cold sensitive when young, it attains more hardiness as it ages. Prefers heavy soils but requires excellent drainage.
