The Black Gold Jackfruit is a highly productive Australian variety prized for its beautiful deep-orange flesh, sweet aromatic flavor, and manageable growth with pruning. The medium-sized fruit has medium-firm flesh that becomes soft and melting when fully ripe, and the edible bulbs separate easily for convenient preparation. Black Gold is an especially heavy producer and responds very well to pruning, making it an excellent choice for Florida home gardens.
