Noni is known for its extreme environmental tolerance. It thrives
in infertile, acidic and alkaline soils and in very dry to very
wet areas.
People who live with noni plants in the area recognize it sight
unseen because of the fruit's pungent smell when fully ripe.
|
|
Approximately the size of a small potato when fully matured,
the noni fruit has a lumpy appearance and a waxy, semi-translucent
skin that ranges in colour as it ripens from green to yellow
to white.
|
The fruit is gel-like
when ripened and its flesh is bitter. The fruit features a knobby
texture, and containts numerous black seeds with air sacs which
lend the seeds buoyancy in water.
It is thought that because of their buoyancy the noni fruit traveled
by sea to other parts of the world. The tough sacs also protect
the seeds from harsh conditions such as salt, sand and gravel.
Small white fragrant flowers bloom out of cluster-like
pods which bear creamy white coloured fruit. |
