The Kei Apple, an African fruit has an interesting tart flavour and makes a tasty jam.
Picking the fruit is difficult as the tree has very sharp thorns that are at least 5 cm long and the fruit is suspended under the lowest branches and is surrounded by thorns

Mooier kan niet! Onze #Appelboom staat echt te pronken! Benieuwd hoeveel appels dit oplevert! #Tuin #Fruit #Lente #Opnaardezomer
An apple a day may keep the doctor away, but a banana a day is more a peeling.

Mangoes and avocados are vital in the #ecosystem, provide #food for humans, #birds, and #animals while supporting #biodiversity. Their trees improve air quality, prevent #soil erosion, and offer shade. Conserving them means protecting trees, avoiding deforestation, and practicing #sustainablefarming. Planting more #fruit trees ensures a steady food supply, enhances the #environment, and supports #life. Everyone should grow and care for #trees.

Die im vergangenen Jahr entfernten Indianerbananen (Früchte sind leider sozusagen etwas mehr oder weniger ungesund 🥴) wurden nun durch Quitten ersetzt.
Wir haben zwar eine Birnenquitte von meinen Eltern übernommen, aber ich habe mich nun für (angeblich🤔 ) sofort essbare Sorten entschieden:
Quitte 'Krymska'
Quitte 'Ayva'
Quitte 'Ananasquitte von der Aisch'
Quitte 'Honigquitte'
Quitte ‚Astheimer Perlquitte‘

Vier sind bereits ausgepflanzt und eine erst einmal in einem größeren Topf.
Wie es aussieht, müssen wir allerdings noch ein ganz klein wenig auf die Früchte warten. 😆

My lemon guavas are starting to ripen & once they starts it happens very quickly. A lot of these will be ready by tomorrow. I’ve already harvested a couple of dozen over the last two days. A lot of them are fatter a juicier than they have been in previous years, no doubt due to the amount of rain we’ve had. They don’t last very long though, but they’re certainly delicious & I pretty much eat as I pick. They’ll be nearly all finished in a couple of weeks. #Garden #Fruit #Guava
