Artocarpus heterophyllus, Jackfruit ‘Orange Crush’ Tree Live Plant
Sow Exotic
Bright Orange, Tropical Sweetness in Every Giant Fruit
The Orange Crush Jackfruit is a vibrant, richly flavored jackfruit variety that produces massive fruits with deep orange flesh, known for their sweet, tropical flavor with notes of mango, banana, and bubblegum. Native to South and Southeast Asia, jackfruit is the largest tree-borne fruit in the world—and this variety is especially prized for its firm texture and intensely colorful pulp.
In addition to its legendary fruit, Orange Crush Jackfruit makes a majestic canopy tree, with large, glossy leaves and a spreading crown that provides food, shade, and biodiversity benefits. The unripe fruit is used in savory cooking (especially as a meat substitute in vegan dishes), while the ripe fruit is a beloved fresh snack or dessert ingredient.
Thriving in warm, humid climates, jackfruit prefers full sun and well-draining soil, and grows rapidly into a productive tropical fruit tree. It can begin fruiting in as little as 3–4 years, especially in fertile conditions with regular moisture and warmth.
