The Pantin Mamey Sapote Tree (also called Key West Mamey) is one of the most popular Sapote Trees among home growers. Ripe Key West Sapotes are between 5 and 10 inches long and 8 inches wide. The best place to grow a Pantin Mamey is in the ground in USDA Zones 9 to 11, or a pot within Zones 4 to 11. The trees are easy to grow and can produce hundreds of fruits each year. Not only is the fruit considered a delicacy, but picking your own each season is a great value, since individual Mamey Sapote Fruits can sell for as high as $10 each. They are self-pollinating and grafted trees can start making fruit in 3 to 5 years. Their creamy pink to orange flesh has flavors of peach, sweet potato, and honey with a slight almond nutiness.Pantin Mamey Trees grow to heights of 50 feet or taller and widths of between 15 and 30 feet. Plant a Pantin / Key West Mamey Tree in your edible garden and harvest your own crops of this one of a kind tropical fruit. They have long oval leaves that are deep green and heavily ribbed. This giant tropical berry is also grown commercially in Florida and the tropics.
