Trying to ID a mysterious fruit
In article , "Ophelia" writes: | | All this sounds so exotic to me. I tend to grow apples, plums, | blackberries, rhubarb and blackcurrants. We do eat them and I cook with | them. I suppose it is because it is what I grew up with I do try unknown | fruits but somehow I can't get to grips with them. Quinces have been grown in the UK for centuries, but are a bit tricky. Japanese quinces / Chaenomeles / japonica are normally grown as flowering plants, and the fruit just sort of happens :-) While the latter makes excellent jelly, cheese, chutney and can be eaten in pies and other puddings, most people don't bother. But they are very decorative flowers and need no attention for producing fruit. Literally NO attention - even less than blackberries :-) Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
