Learn And Earn Contest 7
This is a special edition of the Learn And Earn Contest series I initiated to let us have fun, learn and earn simultaneously. It is my little way of rewarding all who are willing to do a little research to educate us about the plant in question.
It is Special because I ate the fruit tonight too. Alright my people, let's get to the requirements of the post. However, I will like to state that it is not a contest in a general contest sense where one or two persons take the prize because everyone who contributes meaningfully will likely get some form of rewards for their time and efforts.
The requirements are...
Identify the English and botanical names of the plant below ( you can include the native name in your language)
Resteem this post and Comment your Answer.

The Contest ends When The Right Answer Is Provided.
Prize is 1.5SBDs, but I may change my mind if I see some nice entries about the plant. Do a little research. Get creative😀

Thanks for the opportunity and sbd.
You are welcome. Please eat and plant, I learnt it is going extinct 😁👍
Lepidota tail, also known as monkey kola is a common name given in certain wild relatives (white monkey tail, red monkey tail and yellow monkey tail) all these edible fruits of varied character and sweetness. This fruit is known in southern Nigeria during the fruiting season from June to November this tropical African fruit, is about to become extinct and requires great attention as it is a cure, profitable for the deficiency of micro nutrients as we said earlier this Fruit comes in three red, yellow and white varieties of which yellow is the most common. This fruit has moderate calories (65 calories / 100g of pulp) so it is ideal for a meal before training or exercise the high calcium content in this fruit should make the most of it. It is ideal for all age groups and helps in the growth of bones, the relief of blood coagulation and cell signaling that are paramount functions in the human body and help it stay healthy.
Postscript: My attention is called this fruit, I did not know it but I did research and I learned a little more, I was even curious to taste that succulent fruit. I think they should fight and sow more of those trees so that they always have that great fruit. It's a blessing of God.Congratulations @lisangel. You got it right. I so much appreciate the research you put into it.
Thanks for coming around
