שאלות ותשובות
Are the seeds hard?
No, the Shami is famous for its 'soft' arils, making it much easier to eat fresh than many commercial varieties.
When is the best time to harvest?
Late summer or early autumn. Look for a deep pink-to-red hue and a slightly squared-off shape to the fruit.
Does it handle drought?
Yes, but for those juicy, 'heavy' fruits, it appreciates deep watering once a week during the peak of summer.
