Pouteria torta 'Cerrado Guapeva' Seeds
Pouteria torta 'Cerrado Guapeva' is a traditional and culturally significant fruit tree native to Brazil's Cerrado, prized for its milk-sweet flavored fruits and long-standing use by rural and growing in a particular place; nativeindigenous communities. This medium to large tree, with its dense canopy of a treecrown and sturdy trunk, thrives in the dry savannas and transitional forests of central Brazil, where it endures poor soils and drought conditions. Its fleshy fruits, often compared to dulce de leche for their rich and creamy taste, are highly valued for fresh eating and culinary use. Once abundant, Pouteria torta has become increasingly rare due to habitat loss and logging for its high-quality timber. As a cherished symbol of Cerrado heritage and a vital ecological species, it represents both a culinary treasure and a conservation priority.
