Artocarpus heterophyllus, Artocarpus integrifolius
Family: Moraceae
Jackfruit, Jakfruit, Langka, Nangka, Jaca
Origin: India or Malaysia
Big tree > 20 ft

Subtropical, cold hardy at least to 30s F for a short time

The largest tree-borne fruit in the world, reaching 80 pounds in weight and up to 36 inches long and 20 inches in diameter. The interior of the fruit consists of large edible bulbs of yellow, sweet, banana-flavored aromatic flesh. As the fruit ripen at the bottom of the trunk, this tree can be (and should be) pruned annually to 7-12' producing as much as 200 Lbs of fruit per year. Seedlings start fruiting within 3-4 years. The tree is not as cold sensitive as it is thought to be, according to our experience. Mature trees can take some light freeze, smaller plants must be protected. Of course the compact size of the tree (especially when heavily pruned) makes cold protection much easier. Trees can be covered in case of cold, or even grown in large pots in cooler climates. You can't buy this in grocery store, so growing your own is the only option to try this tropical deliciousness! The plant requires organic soil and regular water. More info

2734 Artocarpus heterophyllus - Jackfruit Black Gold, grafted ?

What is grafted plant

Q: What is a grafted plant?

Grafting is a method of vegetative (or asexual) propagation where a piece of one plant (scion) selected for its flowers or fruit and containing the desired genes to be duplicated is inserted into a piece of another plant (rootstock), with a strong vigorous root system, usually a seedling.

Benefits of the graft:

making a clone of the parent plant ensures the same cultivar, since most fruit trees will not come true to seed
taking a scion from a mature plant reduces time to flowering and fruiting (from 10-12 years for a seedling to 2-3 years or less for a grafted plant)
introducing dwarfing, hardiness, disease and pest resistance.
easier propagation method when other means like cutting or seed is not successful
