The Artocarpus heterophyllus, commonly known as Jackfruit, is a unique tropical tree that produces the largest tree-borne fruits in the world. With its glossy, leathery leaves, it is a magnificent addition for lovers of exotic plants and greenhouse cultivation.

Care
Place the Jackfruit in a very sunny and warm location with high humidity. The tree has a high water requirement; ensure the soil remains consistently moist, but provide excellent drainage to prevent root rot. Use nutrient-rich soil and fertilize regularly during the growing season to support its vigorous growth.

Hardiness
The Jackfruit is not hardy and is very sensitive to cold. The plant must overwinter in a warm and very bright spot with a minimum temperature of 12°C. Protect the plant from drafts and significant temperature fluctuations to prevent leaf drop. Note: while this tree can grow very large in the ground, it can be kept manageable when grown in a pot.
