The word 'succulent fruit' is synonymous to fleshy fruit and both words are often used interchangeably. [1] [2] Fruits can be classed as fleshy fruits or dry fruits based on their pericarp. Anatomically, fleshy fruits have a fleshy pericarp which is divided in three layers: an outermost exocarp or epicarp, a middle mesocarp and the innermost ...
Flowering occurs from February to June and the fruit is a fleshy, white, yellow or purplish, more or less spherical drupe 5–9 mm (0.2–0.4 in) long, that matures from May to December. The fruit are four-lobed and have a tuft of hairs on the end.
Guadua sarcocarpa, also known as the fleshy fruit guadua, is a species of clumping bamboo found in Bolivia, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. [ 2 ] This bamboo is used for construction, ladders, fences, and digging sticks.
Generally, fleshy fruits can be divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of a respiratory increase at the onset of ripening. This respiratory increase—which is preceded, or accompanied, by a rise in ethylene—is called a climacteric, and there are marked differences in the development of climacteric and non-climacteric fruits.

In fleshy fruit, during development, the pericarp and other accessory structures become the fleshy portion of the fruit. [2] The types of fleshy fruits are berries, pomes, and drupes. [ 3 ] In berries, the entire pericarp is fleshy but this excludes the exocarp which acts as more as a skin.
In botany, a drupe (or stone fruit) is a type of fruit in which an outer fleshy part (exocarp, or skin, and mesocarp, or flesh) surrounds a single shell (the pip (UK), pit (US), stone, or pyrena) of hardened endocarp with a seed (kernel) inside. Drupes do not split open to release the seed, i.e., they are indehiscent. [1]
The pedicels holding the flowers are 4 to 8 centimeters long. The flower has 4 petals, each 1 to 1.4 centimeters long with a notch in the tip. The two petal color morphs are white and yellow, but all the petals have yellow or orange bases. The fruit is a smooth, oblong or somewhat rounded silicle up to about 1.4 centimeters long.
