Description
Syzygium malaccense, commonly known as Malay Apple, Water Apple or Java Apple, is a tropical fruit tree valued for its attractive, edible fruit and ornamental appeal. Native to Southeast Asia, this tree produces distinctive, bell-shaped fruits that vary in color from green to red or pink, and are known for their crisp, juicy texture and slightly tart flavor.
The Malay Apple tree thrives in warm, tropical climates and is often grown both for its fruit and its ornamental qualities. The tree features glossy, evergreen leaves and clusters of white or pink flowers, which add to its aesthetic value. The fruit is typically eaten fresh, used in fruit salads, or made into jams and jellies.
