Coconuts grow on the plants of the same name originating from tropical regions, with a greater diffusion of these plants especially in the countries of south-eastern Asia, and develop approximately two weeks after flowering, and then mature over a period of about six months. Of this sought-after fruit, the edible part is represented by the white pulp, as is the liquid contained within them. The coconut, especially in India, is considered a sacred fruit and, for this reason, is offered in temples, and is particularly auspicious for women who would like to become pregnant.
