GAC needs male and female plant. You can recognize them by their leaves. I used to grow them from seeds that I got the fruit in CA (I bought it for $8 or $10). Extremely high Vitamin A which is beneficial and good for your eyes. GAC is more for medicinal, vitamins and in cooking than the flavor itself. In my opinion, it has a very mild sweetness if not it is more bland, no fruity smell. The texture is like overly ripe jack fruit but without or lesser sweeter taste; the flesh is soft and wrap around the seed and it comes off like a membrane. The skin has spiky (again like the jackfruit) from the outside and the inside is about 1/2" to 1" thick not edible. Lee Lee supermarket in Chandler sells it in the frozen aisle if you want to try out the taste.
@@qctropicals try to find someone, perhaps in Florida who has a suitable female and persuade them to send some scions to you. I'm trying to get Imbe scions of the hermaphrodite to graft on my male.

You need a male and female gac plant for fruit. Been watching my male which is now huge crank out flowers, never any fruit.
Thank you
How can I guy GAC from you?
You’ll never see a single fruit. You need about 6-10 diffferent vines if you even want a single fruit
