Morphological characteristics: the fruit of the nipplefruit is golden yellow with a peculiar shape; its flowering and fruiting period is summer and autumn, and the fruiting period is long, especially after leaf fall in early winter, because its fruit does not change color or shrink, making it unique and attractive.
