Artocarpus heterophyllus
The Jackfruit Tree is a tropical tree that produces large, green to yellow fruits with a spiky outer skin and sweet, fibrous flesh inside. The fruit is incredibly versatile, eaten both when ripe for its sweet flavour or when unripe for savory dishes. The tree thrives in warm climates and can grow quite large, producing heavy crops of jackfruit that are commonly used fresh, dried, or turned into snacks like Jackfruit Crisp. It’s known for its high yield and unique fruit that can grow up to 20kg in weight.
