Description :

Inside this fruit, there is a dark, shiny, and oval-shaped seed, which is the nutmeg. The seed is surrounded by a bright red, lace-like covering called the aril, which is used to produce mace, another spice with a slightly different flavor profile.Nutmeg trees are evergreen and can grow up to 66 feet tall. They require a tropical climate with well-drained soil. Nutmeg trees are grown from seeds or cuttings and require several years to mature before they start producing fruit.
