Cocoa Beans
The cocoa plant is a branch tree with simple, pointed (lanceolate) leaves which can measure up to 61 cm (24 inch.) long and 10 cm (4 inch.) wide. The cocoa pods (drupes) can be green-white, yellow, purplish or red in colour each of which contains 20–50 seeds, usually arranged in five distinct rows. The cocoa tree can reach 4–20 m (13-66 ft) in height and can live for up to 40 years although the commercial life of a cocoa tree is usually about 25 years.
