AchachaA cousin of the mangosteen, Achachas are tangy and refreshing with a delicate subtle sweetness, a fine balance between sweetness and acidity, producing an unusual taste sensation. Fruit should be picked mature as it does not ripen further on storage. Originating from the Bolivian part of the Amazon basin in South America, the Bolivian name of the fruit is Achachairú and translated means “honey kiss”.
Achacha is protected by Plant Breeders Right (PBR) and cannot be grown or propagated without licence agreement with Achacha Fruit Group

No tip. But I'm going to have a go to grow these inland from Bundaberg.I will be keeping them covered for the first three winters if they survivve the first. Surrounded by Ambarella, Mangos, Chiku,Wampi, Longan and Macadamia nuts. Good soil n water. | Russell Drinkwater - Eidsvold, QLD 06-Mar-2011
These fruit are absolutly scrumptious! | Lauren Murray - Mt Morgan, QLD 06-Mar-2011
Slow growing at first, but speeds up over time. Provide shade when young. Pigeon pea is a great way to do this. | Jason Spotswood (maculata Grove)) - Mount Samson, QLD 10-Mar-2011
