Description
Noni is about the size of an average russet potato with a lumpy texture. Noni leaves are elliptical, dark green edible leaves. They grow to 20–40 cm long, by 7–25 cm wide. They are pinnately veined, and are glossy on the top sides. Noni leaves grow alternately on the stems of the Noni tree, which reaches around 10 m in height. Noni leaves have a bitter, acrid taste. When cut, they have an ammonia-like scent.
The skin of the Noni fruit is semi-transparent and can range in color between pale yellow and lime green. The flesh is off-white, semi gelatinous, and houses many dark brown seeds around its center. The Noni fruit has a distinct and foul smell, often compared to vomit with a bitter, sharp flavor.
