White Sapote Seedling 3x9 in tree band

Casimiroa edulis

White sapote is a heavy producer of delicious sweet fruits that taste similar to a custard or pie filling crossed with a soft pear. Cold and frost hardy. This tree is a distant citrus relative and is an amazing addition to any food forest to add some tropical flavors. Can grow anywhere from 15-60 ft depending on the variety. This is a seedling and will fruit in 7 to 8 years or can be potted up and will be ready as a rootstock to graft onto in 1-3 months. Self pollinating but 2 or more nearby trees increases fruit production as it pollinated mostly by insects.
