Mammoth

A tier

Mammoth is a large-fruited feijoa cultivar—big green eggs with ample scoop flesh for dessert plates and processing efficiency. Flavour is true feijoa when fully ripe and soft; oversized fruit can be impressive at markets. Tree vigour supports heavy crops with care. Showcase halves on breakfast menus; process giants into chutney. Ensure full ripeness—large underripe fruit disappoints. Handle gently; big fruit bruise on hard drops. Good talking point for pick-your-own.
