The Cashew Nut tree (Anacardium occidentale) is a tropical evergreen tree that produces the cashew seed and the cashew apple. The tree can grow as high as 14 m but the grafted cashew growing up to 6 m. The fruit is an oval or pear-shaped structure, a hypocarpium, that develops from the pedicel and the receptacle of the cashew flower called as cashew apple(Cashew apple is high in Vitamin C, refreshing, very juicy, but a bit acidic) The true fruit of the cashew is a kidney shaped drupe that grows at the end of the cashew apple. The drupe develops first on the tree, and then the pedicel expands to become the cashew apple. The true fruit contains a single seed, which is often considered a nut in the culinary sense. Cashew is a tropical plant thrives even at high temperature. Young plants are sensitive to frost.
