Casimiroa Luke has a mild and sweet flavor that resembles a combination of peach, banana, and pear, with a smooth texture.
The tree is an excellent specimen, with a bushy and semi-weeping habit. It has rich green foliage and a short semi-deciduous period after flowering. It is a small to medium-sized tree, growing up to 4 meters in both height and spread.
Casimiroa Luke is self-fertile, and pollinated fruit grows largest, containing 1-5 large seeds embedded in the flesh. Unpollinated fruit does form, but these seedless fruits are generally much smaller.
Casimiora care tips
- Subtropical to tropical, tolerating brief temperatures down to -5.5°C. However, young trees require frost protection.
- Prefers moderate humidity, but adapts well to high humidity.
- Requires sunny locations in cooler areas, with potential for some shade in warmer climates.
- Needs regular watering, though it can withstand short dry periods.
- Deep soil is essential due to its large taproot; container growing is limited to trees with root pruning or cuttings.
