Pouteria procera

Pouteria procera is a tall tree reaching approximately 20 meters in height, native to Una, Bahia, where it grows in clay-rich soils. It produces sweet fruits with little latex, making them more pleasant and easier to consume compared to other latex-rich Pouteria species. This combination of edibility, height, and adaptability to clay soils highlights Pouteria procera as a valuable native species with strong potential for agroforestry, conservation, and regional fruit diversification in the Atlantic Forest.
