Field Notes

Description:

A oval shaped fruit looking plant with a pointed end. Inside it is white with a circle of cocoa beans. When the pods are red that means they are ready to be harvest. Cocoa beans are used for food, medicine and cosmetics. Inside if the beans are brown they are ready. But sometimes in the start before they are ready they are translucent and a lightish beige color.

Habitat:

Evergreen tropical rainforest.
