White Sapote, Sapote, Zapote blanco, CasimiroaThe white sapote is successful wherever oranges can be grown. It does poorly in areas with high summer heat such as the deserts of the Southwest, and in the high humidity of the tropical lowlands of Hawaii and Florida. Otherwise, it can take a lot of abuse, but is brittle in wind. Established trees withstand occasional frost to 22° F., although young trees can be damaged at 30° F. They range in size from 1 2 inches in length. White sapotes bear within 10 years from seed, or 2 3 years from graft.
