The black sapote tree is an attractive, evergreen tree with dense foliage. The branches grow little green to white flowers with oblong, leathery leaves. The trees produce a sweet fruit 2-6 inches in diameter that is similar to the shape of a tomato. The unusual fruit has green outer skin and dark pulp inside.
