Hi, a friend got some seeds from a person who came from Brazil and gave them to him... she said the seeds are red inside if you brake them:

5 cm diameter




and the person said that at Brazil they call it just "almond", amendoa

Looks like "Alatococcus siqueirae", a nut from Brazil.

Hi,

Terminalias both foreign and Brazilian, are slow to germinate, this almond here is born spontaneous, but planting without any treatment, they take about 120 days to germinate, you can break and plant the almond that exists inside the fruit, but it is possible that it rotted!

This amandoa has two varieties here, sweeter yellow fruits and more acidic red fruits and smaller fruits. You can use the pulp to make juice, it is a tall tree, 12 to 14 m, and it has aggressive roots!
