🔍 When is it ripe?
Female trees only: fleshy, apricot-like fruit falls when ripe, emitting a very unpleasant rancid-butter smell. Wear gloves — the outer flesh causes dermatitis. The inner nut is edible; roast or boil after removing shells. Limit intake (toxins at high dose).
Tree produces fruits. Seeds/nuts inside the fruit are edible. Fruit gives off a stinking rotten smell and should be left for wildlife.
