Sapodilla plant

Grafted Sapodilla, scientifically known as Manilkara zapota, is a tropical fruit tree native to Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean. The grafted variety ensures a quicker and more reliable fruit production compared to seedlings, as the desirable traits from the parent tree are passed on through the grafting process. Sapodilla is prized for its sweet, grainy-textured fruit, which is often described as having flavors reminiscent of brown sugar or caramel.
