  • They are fourth most popular fruit and its juice is the most popular juice in America.
  • Brazil is the largest producer of these in the world.
  • The Florida ones are greener than the California ones.
  • It is possible for more than one plant to grow from a single seed.
  • The ripe ones that are unplucked from the trees, may turn to green due to a process called re-greening. This effect does not hamper the taste and the nutritional value.
  • They contain more fiber than most fruits and vegetables.
  • More trees of these are killed by lighting than plant diseases.
  • They were known as the fruits of the Gods. They were often referred as the ‘golden apples’ that Hercules stole.
  • There are over 35,000,000 kinds of these trees in Spain.

Coords may be jumpy, so here's the tree!
