All Time Kalapatti Sapota – Premium High Yield Grafted Variety
The Kalapatti Sapota, also known as Kalipatti Chikoo, is one of India’s most popular commercial sapota varieties. It is highly valued for its high productivity, excellent sweetness, smooth texture, rich aroma, and long harvesting period. The fruits are medium to large, brown-skinned, and contain soft, juicy flesh with a delicious caramel-like flavour.
This grafted plant is propagated from carefully selected mother trees, ensuring true-to-type characteristics while generally bearing fruits much earlier than seed-grown sapota plants.
