Key Features

The tamarind tree from Florida features a large, spreading canopy, pinnate leaves, fragrant yellow-brown flowers about 1 inch in size, and pod-like fruits with a sweet and tangy taste.

Bad. Tree dead- no form of recourse with Everglades farm

Was unable to get a refund/ discount code, ANYTHING for assistance from this company after a tree I ordered arrived dead. With no roots… so they took a graft that must’ve not yet rooted, threw it in a box with some dirt and sold it as a 60 dollar tree. Super upset and disappointed. Ordered through a local company and you expect local treatment but this company seems to care about 1 think only…$$$$

Tamarind to California

Arrived looking stressed. Leaves were falling off and yellowed. Packaging was great and well thought out to prevent jostling and breakage.
