From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Spondias tuberosa (commonly known as Umbú, Imbu, or Brazil plum) is native to Brazil. The round fruit is light yellow to red in colour, around 2-4 cm in size, and has a leathery shell. The flesh is soft and juicy, with a sweet taste and distinct aroma. The fruit comes from a small tree, seldom higher than 6 m, with an expansive crown of up to 10 m in diameter. The fruit is ideal for mixing with gooseberries or plums and is used in fruit juices, jams and sorbets.
