Growing Wax Apple

One tropical fruit that belongs to the Myrtaceae family is the wax apple, which is also called the Java apple, the Semarang rose apple, or Syzygium samarangense. Originally from Southeast Asia, this fruit is now grown all over the globe in tropical and subtropical climates. Its distinctive waxy look, mild flavor, mild wateriness, and mild sweetness make it a popular choice.
You may find wax apples in a variety of colors and shapes, including green, red, and pink. Their typical shapes are bell or pear. The fruit gets its name from its thin, glossy coating that looks like wax. There is a seed cavity in the middle of the white or translucent flesh, which is crisp and delicious. Depending on the type, the flavor could be somewhat acidic or slightly sweet.
The crisp, juicy flesh of a wax apple is perfect for snacking on its own or adding to other dishes including salads, desserts, and drinks. Jams and jellies are made with them or they are pickled in some cultures. The fruit is a nourishing and hydrating option due to its low calorie and high water content.
