Considered a “dwarf” tree, ‘Makok’ has a small and compact growth habit, easy to maintain as a bush.  The fruit is small and delicious, considered one of the best tasting Sapodillas.

___________________________________________________________________________

Latin name - Manilkara zapota

This fruit has often been described as a “brown sugar pear” due to its sweetness and melt-in-your-mouth texture.  The Sapodilla tree is one of our absolute favorite fruit trees, and we believe it’s an underrated choice for Florida yards.  One of the hardiest fruit trees we grow, Sapodilla is drought tolerant, wind resistant, and salt tolerant, making it a great candidate for coastal and inland areas alike.  There are several “dwarf” varieties with compact growth, which can be planted in tight spaces and maintained almost as a bush.  Other types are more vigorous and upright, and can make an impressive canopy tree.

The tree itself is attractive, with beautiful, glossy green leaves.  Sapodilla flowers are inconspicuous, small and bell shaped with white petals.  The fruit can take 6-9 months to develop and mature, and is picked when slightly soft or when the skin appears smooth.  We love to eat them fresh, but many delicious desserts can also be made– sapodilla pie anyone?  We recently tried freeze-dried sapodilla, and it’s amazing!  It’s hard to find anyone who doesn’t enjoy Sapodilla fruit.  Commercially they are often grown in Mexico, but Sapodilla trees can be found throughout the world in commercial farms and backyards alike.

Plant your Sapodilla tree in full sun, with well draining soil.  The tree is drought tolerant and not fussy about soil type, but supplemental watering and fertilization can produce strong, lush growth and fruit production.  Sapodilla has an open, spreading canopy and responds well to pruning. A fun fact about Sapodilla is that its sticky sap, called “chicle”, is the original source of chewing gum.  Remember Chiclets?  They were originally made with Sapodilla sap!

Sapodilla fruit is rich in tannins (polyphenols which have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties) as well as vitamin C to boost the immune system.  Sapodilla trees bloom year round and fruit can be harvested almost any time of year, but is most concentrated in spring and summer.

TOO SMALL
Size: Medium, Color: Blue
Nice socks, but they are way too small. Says they fit size 6 - 10. I kept 3 ( I wear size 8) and gave 3 to my daughter (size 8.5). We both agreed that they were just too small.

Post-COVID Sock Hunt: Finally a Win
Size: Medium, Color: (001) Black / Black / White
Ever since COVID, I haven’t been able to find a pair of socks that hold up for more than a few months. Brands like UA, Adidas, and others seem to have cut corners—likely in response to inflation—by downgrading materials and labor rather than raising prices. The result? Socks that wear thin, rip easily, or lose shape fast. These, however, have been a pleasant surprise. I’ve been wearing them for a few weeks and so far, they’re holding strong. You can tell some cost-saving measures were still made—certain areas feel slightly thinner—but overall, the construction is solid. A key win: they stay on. These are ankle socks (not “no-shows”), and they hug the ankle securely. That’s a huge plus in a world where most post-COVID no-shows slide off halfway through the day. We may never get back to the pre-COVID quality standards without paying a premium, but for now, these are a reliable choice. Ratings: • No slipping: 10/10 • Price: 7/10 • Durability (so far): No pilling or loose threads — promising start.
