How often have you seen #coconut fruits? that's how it looks like. Organic Consumers Association of Australia Coconuts begin their growth from a seed, which is a mature coconut that falls from the tree and can germinate on the ground. The seed takes root in the soil, and the shoot emerges within a few months. As the seedling grows, it develops a robust root system and a sturdy stem. Over the next several years, the coconut palm matures, reaching a height of up to 30 meters. The tree produces large, feathery fronds and begins flowering, typically after 5 to 7 years. Pollination leads to the development of coconuts, which mature over approximately 12 months. A well-grown coconut palm can produce up to 100 coconuts annually, depending on environmental conditions and care. NSABIMANA Cyprien , George A.
