Pink Jackfruit
Pink Jackfruit is a rare cultivar prized for its distinctively coloured flesh that ranges from pale rose to deep pink when ripe. This variety produces medium to large fruits with a sweeter, less fibrous texture compared to common yellow jackfruit, making it ideal for fresh eating. The tree is a heavy bearer once established and adapts well to tropical and subtropical climates across India.
The pink flesh has a unique flavour profile with subtle berry-like notes alongside the classic jackfruit sweetness. Trees typically begin fruiting within 3-4 years when grown from grafted plants. This variety thrives in well-drained soil with regular watering during the growing season and requires full sun exposure for optimal fruit development and colour intensity.
