Its native range extends across Southeast Asia and Australasia, and was spread across the Pacific. The species is now cultivated throughout the tropics and widely naturalized. It can be found in shady forests, as well as on open rocky or sandy shores. It may grow up to 9 m (30 ft) tall but typically to only about 10-18' tall, and has large, dark green, shiny and deeply veined leaves. It should reach maturity in about 18 months, and bear flowers and fruits all year round.The fruit are oval in shape and reach 10–18 centimeters (3.9–7.1 in) in size. At first green, the fruit turns yellow then almost white as it ripens. The fresh fruits strong odor has made it a famine food in most regions, but it remains a staple food among some cultures, and has been used in traditional medicine. In the consumer market, it has been introduced as a supplement in various formats, such as capsules, skin products, and juices.It is tolerant of saline soils, drought conditions, and secondary soils. It is therefore found in a wide variety of habitats. Grows in full to partial sun. Plants will not survive temperatures below 35-40 degrees F.

For complete transparency we include payment processing & Ebay fees in our shipping/handling cost.*DISCLAIMER*NO RETURNS/REFUNDS/REPLACEMENTS ON SEEDSMost specialty seeds we offer are NOT fast to germinate.Many take several weeks, months, and some even up towards a year depending on dormancy, region, season etc. It is important that the buyer understands that seeds are perishable products and seed germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, dormancy, care, contamination of planting media among many other reasons. These factors are totally out of The Plant Attraction's control and are the buyer's responsibility and risk. Germination recommendations are sent with each order and the buyer is free to research and use their own methods. Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water. Accordingly, The Plant Attraction does not guarantee seeds to perform properly regardless of conditions or buyer's methods or mistakes. Since 2006 we have been doing our best to hand sort and provide the freshest, cleanest harvest that is free of defects and bugs.
