Detailed explanation-1: -Arguably the most common fruit that grows on palm trees is coconuts. But did you know, palm trees also provide a number of other delicious fruits? With the right species, you can enjoy dates, peaches, and even acai.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer. Botanically speaking, a coconut is a fibrous one-seeded drupe, also known as a dry drupe. However, when using loose definitions, the coconut can be all three: a fruit, a nut, and a seed. Botanists love classification.
Detailed explanation-3: -The growth of a coconut palm tree starts with germination of the seed. On beaches in and in jungles, where coconuts grow naturally, the process starts when a coconut falls from a tree and becomes partially buried into the soil below. After several weeks to months, the outer husk of the coconut begins to split.
