A Syracuse University professor and artist, Sam Van Aken, is responsible for creating a tree that is capable of producing 40 different types of fruit. Not only is that convenient, the appearance of this tree is quite beautiful.

According to the video above, Van Aken's vision was to plant these trees in places where people would just happen to stumble upon them. The method in which he used to create this agricultural phenomenon is an ancient technique called "Chip Grafting," according to IFL Science! You can find out more about this tree, what fruits it may contain, and where you can find them by visiting 'The Tree of 40 Fruit' website.
