Coco Plum

Coco Plum (Chrysobalanus icaco) is a small to medium-sized tree native to the tropical regions of Central and South America, as well as parts of Africa and the Caribbean. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil that can be light (sandy), medium, or heavy (clay). Hardy from zones 10-12, this tree can grow up to 6 meters tall. Known for its edible fruit and seeds, the Coco Plum is a valuable resource in many of its native habitats. One distinctive feature of this plant is its ability to adapt to various soil types while providing sustenance through its fruits.
