Artocarpus lacucha Lakoocha or Monkey Jack Fruit


Artocarpus lacucha Lakoocha or Monkey Jack Fruit (Artocarpus lacucha)

My little lakoocha tree is growing pretty well. It probably would be larger if winter and spring wasn’t cooler than normal. This tropical tree wants and loves very hot and humid weather all year. Photo taken Oct. 3, 2023.

I just love its name, Lacucha! Do you eat the fruit?

Kate,

I’ve never eaten a lakoocha fruit. I’ve read it’s good.
The tree is very beautiful!

A tangy citrus flavor says the Google. Something to look forward to.

I can’t wait for it to fruit. I’ll probably be 80 when it fruits, though. 😂
