Description
The fruit is sweet and ripens in October and November, after most varieties have finished.
The thick skin of Shan-e-Khuda gives it a long shelf life and high export value. It can be found in four colors – red, purple, green, and yellow. It is sometimes called 'Sun Session' because the more sun it receives, the more colors are produced during its ripening season.[1]
