This healthy, tropical evergreen tree is prized for its unique velvety reddish-brown fruits with soft, creamy pink flesh that tastes like a blend of strawberry, mango, and peach. It grows best in well-drained, fertile soil with slightly acidic to neutral pH and thrives in full sun to partial shade, requiring 6-10 hours of sunlight daily. Water the plant thoroughly every 4 days, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged, mimicking its natural tropical environment.

Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season and prune twice a year in spring and summer to maintain shape and encourage air circulation. Repot in spring when roots outgrow the current pot, using well-draining potting mix. Keep the plant in temperatures between 60-85°F (15-30°C) as it is frost sensitive. It generally takes 3-4 years to start fruiting, and the fragrant fruit is popular for fresh eating and culinary uses.​
