Description Of African Star Apple
African star apple is a fruit that is widely grown in tropical Africa. It's found in countries such as Nigeria,Togo,Ghana,and Benin republic. The tree that produces this fruit is usually tall and huge. Using Nigeria as a case study,this fruit starts maturing and ready for consumption from December to April. By this,you can say it's a seasonal fruit. A fruit has four to six seeds in it. The scientific name of star apple is called Chrysophyllum albidum. The Yoruba ethnic group in Nigeria calls it "agbalumo" while the Igbo ethnic group calls is "udala" or "udara". I said earlier that this fruit has about 4 to 6 seeds in it. These seeds are shaped like star;hence the name 'star apple'.
