Noni has been thought to be a cure-all for just about everything, from stomach ache to cancer. There are quite a bit of Noni Juice and Noni Extract products out there. We have one in the Deerfield Beach Arboretum. Ours started out a bit weak rooted and I don't know if they all are like that or we just got one with a weak root system. Other than that, it is effortless to grow and fruit for us.

So many species,

so little time.

The Morinda citrifolia is very common here in Rurrenabaque but is still quite sought after... I grow them in my little nursery and I have never in my life smelled anything like the squashed Noni fruit... The smell is impossible to describe, it is extremely awful. I red somewhere that the smell is be course of the high level of potassium... Just you wait until the fruits starts to rot on your lawn... :rant: It will not be a good day...!

They grow like weeds around here and quiet a few people have started small extracting and bottling plants.

The smell of the fully ripe fruit is most often described as the scent of human vomit.

Must be healthy then?

Located on Vanua Levu near Savusavu (16degrees South) Elevation from sealevel to 30meters with average annual rainfall of 2800mm (110in) with temperature from 18 to 34C (65 to 92F).

They're native to this area and very common, particularly in coastal areas. People who eat them really like them, but those who don't just hate them (from an eating perspective). There's no middle ground. I've tried eating a few times but my mouth is too close to my nose and I couldn't even force it happen. Tamarind is far easier.
