🥚 A Unique Shape for a Classic Flavor: The Long Fruit Canistel! 🥚

Discover a fascinating twist on a tropical favorite! Ivy Paradise is proud to offer the Long Fruit Canistel, a unique variety of Pouteria campechiana that produces distinctly elongated, oval-shaped fruits instead of the typical round or egg-like shape. Enjoy the same deliciously sweet, custard-like flesh you love, but in a remarkable new form that makes this tree a standout in any exotic fruit collection.

🍠 Why the Long Fruit Canistel is a Special Find:

• Elongated, Unique Fruit Shape: This is the defining feature! The fruits grow into a long, oval shape, setting them apart visually from other canistel varieties. Their bright yellow-orange skin makes them a beautiful and curious sight hanging from the branches. 🎯

• Rich, Sweet, and Creamy Flesh: Inside, the Long Fruit Canistel offers the same wonderful taste and texture that has earned it the nickname “eggfruit.” The flesh is dry, sweet, and dense, with a flavor reminiscent of sweet potato, pumpkin, and marzipan. It’s a natural, healthy dessert that can be eaten fresh with a spoon.

• Versatile Culinary Uses: The sweet, thick flesh is incredibly versatile. Use it fresh, in smoothies, milkshakes, pies, custards, or even as a healthy base for baby food. Its natural sweetness can reduce the need for added sugar in recipes.

• Productive and Ornamental Tree: This evergreen tree is not only a reliable producer but also adds lush, tropical beauty to your landscape with its glossy, dark green leaves. It’s both functional and attractive.

• Hardy and Low-Maintenance: Once established, the Canistel tree is relatively drought-tolerant and resilient, making it a great fruit tree for warm climates without excessive fuss.

🌞 Easy-Care Guide for a Bountiful Harvest:

• Climate: Thrives in tropical and frost-free subtropical climates. It cannot tolerate frost.

• Sunlight: Prefers Full Sun to partial shade for the best fruit production.

• Watering: Requires regular watering while young. Mature trees are quite drought-tolerant but will produce better fruit with consistent moisture during dry spells.

• Soil: Adaptable to a variety of well-draining soils but performs best in rich, loamy soil.

• Harvesting: Fruits are harvested when they turn a solid light yellow-orange and yield slightly to gentle pressure. They ripen fully off the tree at room temperature.
