The Star Apple is a tropical fruit tree that will need some space when it matures as adult plants can reach more than 60 feet tall (though pruning can keep it more manageable). mature plants after a few years produce tiny purple-white blooms that develop when pollinated into 2-3 inch, rounded deep purple fruits. When cut open, these fruits reveal a star-shaped pattern inside corresponding to the pockets where the seeds lay, hence the common name. The sweet fruits are often compared to apples (also hence the name) with hints of grape or other more tropical flavors.
One seed-grown plant currently about 12 inches tall available.
