This hybrid white variety produces a medium-sized, heavy-bearing tree with fruit that's crisp and watery, comparable in taste to watermelon rather than apple. Compared to the related Malay apple, this hybrid stays medium-sized with lots of nearly seedless fruit, rather than fewer, bigger fruit on a taller tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGrowing Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sunlight, minimum 5-6 hours daily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained, slightly acidic soil; dislikes water-logged conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClimate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tropical; grows well below about 35°C, with an ideal range of 15-35°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Spacing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrows well in a pot or in the ground; in the ground, it can reach over 8 metres.
