Exotic fruit plants are not native to India but popular in other countries. Some of them grow very well in India, just as they do in their native places. For convenience, an exotic variety of commonly found fruit plants gets listed under "Indian fruit plants."
Exotic fruit plants here are mostly tropical or sub-tropical fruit plants, and growing them can be a rewarding experience.

Green sapote is a slow-growing tropical fruit tree with sweet and creamy fruit. Enjoy this sapote variety, which is an altogether different avatar from our regular sapota. It is not just bigger in size than our chikoo but also high on taste and nutrition.
Matoa is a high-yielding tropical fruit tree that has a taste similar to that of rambutan. Matoa has a good, thick skin and a nice, fleshy inner core. The fleshy part is easily separated from the small pulp and is very tasty.
The Matova tree flowers in the month of October and starts giving good, ripe fruits in 45 days. Unripe Matoa is green in colour, which turns purple upon ripening.
Matoa fruit is not usually affected by pests. The male and female flowers bloom together on the Matoa tree, which grows 20 metres or more in height.
