Green sapote (pouteria viridis)

$150.00

14” pot. Green sapote might be my favorite fruit. Tree to 25 feet with very attractive foliage and out of this world delicious fruits. I compare the taste to caramelized sweet potato pie, so bold yet so delicate. This species is endemic to the mountains of Guatemala and it can handle brief frost when mature, though its closely related to the mamey sapote which is tropical. To me this is a dream, if it were the only fruit i had to eat i would be happy. Tree is cold hardy to at least 30F degrees when tree is larger. it should be protected from temps below 32 until its larger. free shipping
