 What am I?When you first see me, you might not notice that I like to be the star! I am native to islands like the Philippines and Indonesia, which have hot and tropical climates. I've become more popular worldwide for my unique shape. I can be sweet or tart.  Where I growI grow on trees. My tree grows slowly and can grow fruit for about 40 years. Unlike most trees in cooler climates, my tree flowers many times each year. I am a green fruit, but when I turn slightly yellow, I'm ready to pick off the tree.  After I'm pickedI can be made into juice, jam, cooked, and of course, eaten fresh. Every part of me you can eat, even my skin that is smooth and waxy. I should be set in the fridge and then eaten soon before my edges turn brown.  Did you guess.... StarfruitEspañol: carambola When you cut into starfruit, it looks like a star!
