Jocote Tree Red For Warm Tropical Climates
Jocote Tree Red For Warm Tropical Climates
Jocote fruit grows on deciduous trees in warm tropical climates. It develops after small red flowers before leaves appear, and ripens from green to purple or red; some varieties turn yellow. The thin, waxy skin is edible, and the yellow, sweet pulp surrounds a large inedible pit. The flavor is plum-like with mild acidity.
Native to regions from southern Mexico to northern Peru and north-coastal Brazil, Jocote trees are common in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, and Panama, and also grow in the West Indies and Bahamas. Spanish explorers introduced the fruit to the Philippines. They are related to mangoes and cashew apples. The fruit is rich in vitamin C, carbohydrates, and minerals, plus antioxidants.

Great product and delivery
Really nice soil and awesome service
Never used because I ordered the wrong Water Filter. Mike was very helpful with the return and refund. Excellent Customer Service.
Great service. Soil is what I wanted and it off loaded exactly where I asked.
Plants are doing really well with this soil. Deep and rich looking soil, plants seem really happy. Much more cost effective (and no plastic bag waste) compared to buying bags of soil mix from a store.
The quality of the craftsmanship is superb! My formula one fan absolutely loves it!!!!
Worked like an absolute charm!
These markers were perfect for ones that we were replacing. The quality is great and they seem sturdy. The gold detail stands out and is visible from a distance. Shipping was very fast.
Good solution. The little flies have disappeared. We were sure to mist/moisten the surface of each plant once a day for 4 or 5 days, after the initial application of the nematodes, to keep the little guys mobile and able to get to any remaining eggs. So, go for it!
Plant was well packed and shipment was very fast. Received a very nice fully rooted plant in the pot!
The organic garden soil is doing very well in my garden bed. The company was professional, nice, and accommodating to my needs. They provide many types of things for your landscaping at a reasonable price.
