Default In the hedgerows...


Well, a park and Sainsbury's car park to be honest. No photos but I'll try a
description and see if we're going to die or not...

Tree, approx 20ft. Dark green smallish leaves. Fruits either ripen to a dark
cherry red or a very splendid yellow. Much like a small plum about the size
of a cherry tomato. Taste like plums but not as strong... Small stone
inside.

These seem to be everywhere at the moment with little piles of fruit below
as no one else seems to be eating them. Seen them on roadsides driving about
as well as the aforementioned places..

Any ideas?

Les
