The Rose Apple Fruit and Flowers

• Fruit Appearance: The fruit is typically round to bell-shaped, about 4-5 cm in diameter, with a thin, waxy, light yellow or pale green skin.
• Texture and Taste: It has a crisp, airy, and juicy flesh with a subtly sweet, mildly tart flavor, most famously described as tasting and smelling like rose-water.
• Culinary Uses: It is excellent when eaten fresh and raw, and is also used to make refreshing juices, jams, jellies, and desserts.
• Flowers: The tree produces showy, creamy or greenish-white, pompom-like flowers that are highly fragrant and attract pollinators like bees.

Growing and Care Guide

Sunlight and Climate Needs

The Rose Apple thrives in warm, humid conditions prevalent in most of the Indian subcontinent.

• Sunlight: The plant requires full sun exposure (at least 6 hours of direct bright light a day) for optimal growth and fruit production. Young plants benefit from some afternoon shade.
• Climate: Best suited for tropical and subtropical regions where it is widely cultivated.

Watering and Soil

• Soil: Plant in a well-draining, loamy soil that is rich in organic matter. Good drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging.
• Watering: Regular and consistent watering is crucial. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially for young and potted plants. Mature trees can tolerate short periods of drought once established.
• Fertilization: Fertilize with a balanced N-P-K fertilizer during the growing season to encourage robust health and fruiting.

The secure paper core packing method used for shipping ensures the plant is protected and well-ventilated during transit, ensuring you receive a healthy, genuine variety plant.
