Thanks to you Nick, Stewart and Janet but I'm afraid it's still not
pinned
down. None of the fruits you've discussed are grooved enough.

What about posting to the RHS?

Could do - good idea. I'll also ask her to knock on the door, though
and
to
take a photo of the whole thing. She describes the bush as looking as
if
it's covered in lots of little pumpkins!

Couldn't...ahem...tell us what street it's on, could you...?

someone


Sorry, no! Even if I could, I don't think I should, if you see what I
mean.


Why not? It takes years to grow a tree from seed, so it's not interrupting
anybody's business.

I have some small (half-metre) Dovyalis caffra trees looking for good homes
in a warm environment (maybe IoW), and also Eugenia uniflora that produces
delicious fruits. I have enough trees so that I can test test/sacrifice
some of them this winter. If some of them die, I'll know to keep the rest
indoors.



Er.......I don't know who you are. This seems to be an unusual shrub. If I
give you the name of the street, effectively I give the world the location
of an individual I don't even know. This plant is in a private garden.
