Its fruit looks like Buddha's headdress, so it is often called "Sakyamuni" fruit.
China Taiwan Province Province was introduced and planted by the Dutch before 16 17, with a history of more than 400 years. However, due to the backwardness of varieties and cultivation techniques, it has not been popularized in production, but only cultivated in small and medium areas in the garden.
Later, although some new varieties were introduced from the United States, Peru, Israel and other countries and regions, they were not widely promoted in production because the maturity coincided with the typhoon season and the fruit cracked seriously.
It was not until around A.D. 1993 that the cultivation of Sakyamuni was widely spread in Taiwan Province Province with the improvement of cultivation management technology and the development of production cycle adjustment technology, which not only avoided the rainy season in the mature period, but also gained more crops in one year.
