Trying to ID a mysterious fruit
In article , Stewart Robert Hinsley writes: | | You can think of a medlar (Mespilus) as a giant haw (Crataegus); loquats | (Eriobotrya) are also pome fruits, but so are apples, pears, | serviceberries, and quite a few other plants. Indeed. Of the traditional tree fruits grown in the UK, nearly half are pome fruits and most of the others are in the plum/cherry group. | One fruit I particularly like but don't see much in the UK shops is | grenadilla (is there an English name?). Divine! Lidl (of all places!) | was selling them a while back... | | Yes, there is an English name; it is granadilla. | | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granadilla We always knew it as grenadilla in Africa.
