This variety at least, should show a "Fruiting/Harvest Months" season of from October or Nov or Dec to April or May, for Sydney, especially for a mature tree ie after the tree has been growing many years eg about 10 to 15.

I grew mine from seed. One in three trees is fertile. About 5 years. Accidental overwatering caused massive flowering in October, -still flowering and setting fruit in Feb. Prolific. Perhaps best cloned from fertile cuttings. Delicious!

Frost knocked them back to rootstock, but after being transplanted to a frost free spot, they are doing great. Growing well in shallow clay soil, with frequent droughts and no irrigation. Very drought tolerant. No fruit yet, five years on.

Seeds of white sapote are used in Mexico as a herbal medicine to lower blood pressure. Pharmacologically-active chemicals have been isolated from them and tested in laboratory animals. Consequently they appear to be potentially poisonous if eaten.

Warning. The seed of the white sapote is fatally toxic. We had a very sick golden retriever who ate a fruit and crunched into one of the seeds. Fortunately she threw up what she had eaten and is OK. An edible fruit with toxic seeds! You need to warn peopl
