Tamarind

Tamarind (Makham)

  Tamarind trees are medium to large and very branches.It has a thick grey bark, the small oval leaves are pale green. Small clusters of yellow flowers with red stripes bloom in May and fruits in October to November. The reddish brown, curved seed pods of a lovely tropical tree hold several large seeds encased by moist, sticky, dark brown pulp that varies from being very sweet to very sour.  Young tamarind fruit has a pliable brown skin and the inside greenish with whitish seeds. As the fruit matures the greenish insides turn brown and the pod becomes more bulbous. As the fruit dries out, the pod becomes stiff and brittle, the insides become pasty and the seeds turn brown.
