Artocarpus heterophyllus also known as the Jackfruit tree. This tree grows to heights of 30 to 50 feet tall, with trunk measuring 12 to 36 inches in diameter. The Jackfruit is the largest tree-borne fruit in the world reaching about 2 feet long and weighing about 40 pounds. Jackfruit can be used raw or cooked into a variety of ways. The pulp of young fruit is rich in carbohydrates and is usually cooked as a vegetable. The fruit becomes sweeter as it ripens, as some of the carbohydrates are converted into sugars. The ashes of leaves with or without oil are used to treat ulcers, diarrhoea, boils, stomach-ache and wounds. At Palm Garden Nevis it can be found at Event Area 3.
