Quararibea Cordata
''Quararibea cordata'', known as the South American sapote or chupa-chupa, is a large, semi-deciduous fruit tree reaching heights of up to 45 meters. It is native to the Amazon rainforest vegetation in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Description The tree produces orange-yellow fruits that are soft, juicy, and sweet, each containing 2-5 seeds. These fruits are typically consumed fresh by hand, although they can also be juiced. Although generally popular, the fruit is variable in quality, as some trees may produce insipid or fibrous fruits. Little work has been done to establish preferred cultivars. ''Quararibea cordata'' thrives in wet, deep soils, but it is susceptible to being killed by floods. Distribution ''Quararibea cordata'' is native to the foothills of the Andes and is commonly found throughout parts of Brazil, Venezuela, and Colombia, as well as rural southern Panama.
