I love these! Tip: After slicing them, place them flat with some space in between each one (in either a ziplock bag, vacuum sealed bag or the eco-friendly non- plastic ones) in the freezer for at least an hour for a cold, refreshing and natural snack. You can also make a drink called "bebida de carambola" which is like lemonade. (Mosltly water, ice, pureéd and strained starfruit, and sweetner as desired. I add fresh sliced white grapes, red ripe watermelon, strawberries and cucumbers in a family size pitcher for the ultimate hot day beverage) Thanks again, Matt! You're awesome.

@@malihairshad5261 Plant your star fruit tree in a fully sunny spot for optimal plant growth and fruit production. Although the carambola tolerates various soil conditions, this tree prefers rich, loamy soils with pH levels ranging from 5.5 to 6.5. You should also choose an area that has good drainage and protection from high winds.

Thank you for this video! I have a small tree my mom grew from seed and gave to us. We babied it for years!! Funny story, my mom gave it to us saying it was kiwi😂😂. Never thought to look into how kiwi grow lol. Anyways we carried this thing in a pot cross state through a move and everything, sometimes wondering if it was just a weed we were growing. Then one day BAM it produced. Hundreds of starfruit!! This little tree (I keep it cut to about 5-6 feet) produces several times a year and many many fruit. Like bunches of grapes. The problem is no one in my house likes them. I try to harvest and at least put them at the end of our driveway for neighbors to enjoy so they don't go to waste. Then today I watched your video and actually found out the proper way to cut them. MUCH better!! I harvested my first one for this season and cut it like u said. It was delicious! What a big difference that makes! I'll try making juice too like some suggested and of course I'll still share. There's just too many. If any of you like this fruit and are able to, grow it! It's so easy and not that much maintenance. Ours is in the ground in FL. Was in a pot before we moved. Thanks again for the video.

I'll try one more time. Hope this time I like the taste. In my country, 'India' , it is low in price. Thank You for describing the correct way of having a star fruit and it's benefits.

Here in Virginia, starfruit is a fruit you very rarely see in markets, around September to March you see more common tropical fruits (pomegranate, kiwano, dragonfruit, etc.), but I can't seem to find these anywhere. Suprisingly, I found about 10 of them at the local Food Lion recently, so I decided to pick one up. It's a pretty good fruit, sweet, sour, and a hint of apple and cucumber. I would buy this again!

Awesome, I am happy you finally found some. Are there any Asian supermarkets in Virginia, if so, and if you haven't been to them before, check them out. They usually have a better tropical fruit selection than standard supermarkets. :)

Glad you got to try them! Yeah unless you have a heated green house for the winter, it will be tough to grow these outside because of the cold winters there. But you certainly may be able to grow them indoors. Good luck!

have you tried growing them yourself to harvest? how do you grow them here in the US? i live in New Hampshire. Would they grow here and if so when is the best time to plant them? How do you plant them from fruit? Are there seeds from them you can replant and grow from home?

Hi Stephanie! They do grow really well hear in Arizona, but I haven't bought any trees yet, on my list when I get a house with a backyard, haha. I am not sure if they will grow well in New Hampshire, unless you have a climate controlled greenhouse, they don't do well in the cold. I would recommend planting saplings, from a nursery. But you may need to buy them from Florida.
