VERY RARE! Ross Sapote is an evergreen tropical/subtropical fruit tree native to Central America. It’s fruit is large and round. It has a soft, smooth, creamy pumpkin pudding like texture and a sweet, delicious caramel aroma and flavor. Fruit is typically harvested in the fall but may have more than one season per year. Ross Sapote is a gorgeous, fast growing fruit tree that prefers well drained soil and good amounts of sunlight. In the wild it can generally be found in wetland forests in areas of low elevation.

Ross Sapote was introduced to Florida by the legendary rare fruit collector, Bill Whitman. For those who are on the fence about the flavor of Canistel, you will quickly fall in love with delicious Ross Sapote fruit. Unlike Canistel, the texture of Ross Sapote fruit is consistently creamy throughout and it’s not dry or chalky at all.

  1. I always struggle to find plants that will grow in the full sun, clay soil area behind my house, but this plant is hanging in and growing. I can’t wait til the hummingbirds start to come.

  2. It arrived intact, just in need of some care. I’m happy to have got this one, this tree means a lot to me – one of my favorite as a child in the countryside of Brazil.

  7. I have purchased now three cold hardy citrus (citrandarin, and swingle citrumelo) both are in ground, doing great, but this thomasville cintrangaquat is shriveled, looks dry, and not happy. Little concerned this one is not going to make it and do as well as the other two.
