Jackfruit (Grafted) - Honey Panasa

About Jackfruit Honey Panasa

Jackfruit is a handsome, evergreen tropical tree with glossy, leathery leaves, producing the largest tree-borne fruit in the world. The Honey Panasa variety is a grafted, sweet-fleshed type - the carpels are soft and honey-sweet, closer to eating than the fibrous raw variety used for cooking. Botanically Artocarpus heterophyllus, of the mulberry (Moraceae) family.

Growing Conditions

• Sunlight: Full sun for at least 6 hours daily.
• Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic matter.
• Climate: Tropical to subtropical, warm and humid.

Planting & Spacing

Best grown directly in the ground or a very large pot given its eventual size; give it plenty of open space away from structures and other trees.

Care

• Watering: Regular deep watering while young; established trees are fairly drought-tolerant.
• Fertilizer: Organic fertilizer 2-3 times a year, especially before flowering season.
• Pruning: Remove damaged or crossing branches; prune out any growth arising below the graft union.

Fruiting & Harvest

Grafted Honey Panasa typically fruits in 2-4 years. Ripe fruit has a strong sweet aroma and slightly softens at the rind.

Note: This listing ships a young nursery plant, not a fruiting tree. Time to first fruit and yield vary by climate, care, and region - we don't promise a fixed timeline. The tree's sap is a sticky latex that can irritate skin - handle with gloves when pruning. The fruit itself is safe and nutritious.
