What am I eating?
There are some 'accidental' fruits in my garden, which I'd like to identify.
I have eaten (and stewed) quite a few without ill-effect and they are ripe now. They are yellow, about 1.8 cm in diameter and have a central stone, measuring around 1cm. The flesh is sweet and tastes just like a plum, the skin is rather sour. The branches of the tree which bears them have long (2-3cm) sharp spikes/thorns. They're obviously a prunus, I think. Are they mirabelles? Googling so far has not shown me the rest of the plant. The spikes are vicious... -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. |
