List of 7-letter Fruits
2
Apricot
Prunus armeniaca
A small velvet-skinned orange stone fruit with a brief season — eaten fresh, dried, or jammed across cuisines from Persian to Provençal.
3
Atemoya
Annona × atemoya
A tropical hybrid fruit — cherimoya × sugar apple — with sweet creamy white flesh, large dark seeds, and a tropical flavor between vanilla custard and pineapple, eaten fresh in tropical regions.
4
Avocado
Persea americana
A creamy single-seeded berry from Central America, beloved for its buttery flesh and unusually high content of monounsaturated fats.
5
Coconut
Cocos nucifera
The seed of a tropical palm, technically a drupe rather than a nut, source of oil, milk, water, flesh, and one of the most-used ingredients in tropical cooking.
6
Kumquat
Citrus japonica (formerly Fortunella spp.)
A miniature olive-sized citrus eaten whole, peel and all — sweet skin, tart flesh, and a contradiction in your mouth that makes them addictive snacking fruit across East Asia.
7
Langsat
Lansium parasiticum
A small, grape-sized tropical fruit of Southeast Asia — langsat grows in tight pendant clusters on the trunk and branches of tall trees, with thin, yellow-brown skin that releases a milky latex when broken; the translucent, jelly-like flesh is divided into segments, varying from sweet-tart to slightly bitter depending on how the seed is handled when eating; a beloved fresh fruit in Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
8
Plumcot
Prunus salicina × Prunus armeniaca
A 50/50 plum-apricot hybrid created by Luther Burbank in the 1880s — the original parent of pluots, apriums, and the entire modern stone-fruit hybrid family.
9
Rhubarb
Rheum rhabarbarum
The vegetable that acts like a fruit — rhubarb's bright red-green stalks are so acidic they cannot be eaten without sugar, but when cooked with sugar they produce a tart, uniquely flavoured ingredient for pies, crumbles, and jam; forced Yorkshire rhubarb, grown in dark sheds, is a protected food with a distinctive pale pink colour and more delicate flavour.
10
Rose Hip
Rosa canina (and other Rosa species)
The fruit of the rose plant — a small, red to orange oval berry produced after the flower fades; one of the richest plant sources of vitamin C; made into syrup, jam, herbal tea, and soup, most famously as rose hip syrup distributed to British children during WWII rationing.
11
Satsuma
Citrus unshiu
A small seedless Japanese mandarin variety — easy to peel, low in acid, the iconic Japanese winter fruit and the dominant mandarin in much of the American South.
12
Soursop
Annona muricata
A spiky-skinned tropical American fruit with creamy, intensely sweet-tart white flesh — the *guanábana* of Latin American smoothies, with an aroma combining strawberry, pineapple, and citrus.
13
Tangelo
Citrus × tangelo
A tangerine-pomelo hybrid with a distinctive nipple-like bump at the stem end — juicy, sweet-tart, easy to peel, and the genetic ancestor of several modern grocery citrus varieties.
14
Ximenia
Ximenia americana
A small, sour-sweet yellow-orange fruit known as wild plum or sea lemon, eaten across African savannas and used for its oil-rich seed in traditional cosmetics.
