Timonius minahassae - Red Sapote Seeds

1 seed per pack. Newly rediscovered is this sapote-like fruit that is actually not a sapote, but part of the coffee family. It bears large, bright red fruits, with similarly bright red pulp, having a juicy texture and a sweetly-sour acidic flavor. Found wild in tropical Sulawesi, one of the main islands of Indonesia. Beautiful, rare, and unknown in cultivation. Likely not frost hardy and probably needs a humid, tropical climate for best growth. Seeds are fresh, cannot be stored and should be planted on receipt. #5496
