Mai-1 Jackfruit – A Thai Classic with Golden Yellow Fruits and Crisp Flesh

The Mai-1 Jackfruit is a highly prized Thai variety known for its crisp, sweet flesh and minimal latex. This tree produces abundant, large fruits with a golden-yellow hue, making it an excellent choice for those seeking both beauty and flavor in their garden.

Tree Characteristics:

  • Size & Growth: The tree can be maintained at a manageable height of 8-10 feet with regular pruning, making it suitable for smaller yards and home gardens.
  • Temperature Tolerance: Thrives in USDA Zones 10-12 and can tolerate brief dips in temperature down to around 30°F (-1°C), though it prefers warm, tropical climates.
  • Sunlight & Watering: Requires full sun and regular watering, as it is not drought-tolerant. Ensure consistent moisture for healthy growth.
  • Production Capability: Begins bearing fruit within 2-3 years and produces high yields season after season.

Fruit Characteristics:

  • Fruit Size: The fruits are large and oval-shaped, typically weighing between 25-35 lbs (11-16 kg).
  • Color & Texture: The skin is golden yellow, and the flesh is extra crispy, offering a sweet and delicious flavor with minimal latex. This makes the fruit easy to handle and clean.
  • Latex Type: Known for having low latex compared to other jackfruit varieties, simplifying the preparation process.
  • Harvest Time: Ripens between mid-summer and late summer (July to August).

Care Tips:

Mai-1 thrives in full sunlight and well-drained soil. Regular pruning helps keep the tree compact, maintaining a height that’s easy to manage. Ensure proper watering, as the tree does not tolerate drought, and provide protection during brief cold periods.
