World’s heaviest nut

The fruit of the coco de mer typically weighs between 15 to 30 kg. The largest fruit recorded weighed 42 kg making it the world’s heaviest nut. The seeds need two years to germinate, and the plant must grow 20–40 years to start flowering. When the husk is removed the seed resembles the shapely form of a woman's buttocks.
