This tree by the side of my townhouse is always bearing fruit (I still have no idea what it is). In the summer the fruit is green, in the fall it's vibrant shades of red, orange, and yellow. Fall colours
Last week I had spent a lot of time in the truck. I was basically playing the part of a chauffeur in a movie that is my life. There was preschool, dentist appointments, picking up Brett, quick trips to the grocery store...and the waiting. There was also a lot of waiting in the truck too. I tried to knit as much as I could on what I had on hand but ended up taking half of the week's photos in the truck. Oh well. The lighting was good!
That last one looks like Lychee... maybe?
ReplyDeleteI don't think it is a Lychee tree, even though I wish with all my might that it was! ;) This "fruit" never hardens, as in it squishes way too easily and doesn't have a pit. And it doesn't have that shell like skin that Lychee usually have when they are ripe. It's just so weird!
DeleteI know we discussed it being lychee, but lychee season is May/June. So I don't know what this is! You need to open one up and post a photo. Maybe crack one open with your foot and see what the seeds look like! I'm so curious now!
ReplyDeleteMary, I agree...look at the above comment reply that I made as to why. I think I WILL take a photo of what one looks like inside. I know they are mushy, as there's been a few times where I've tried to pick one up and it would just fall apart like a melted slushball. I've never seen seeds in them either, and I find it weird that the tree is ALWAYS bearing this fruit!
DeleteI found out what it is!!! It's a type of arbutus tree called a Strawberry Arbutus Tree http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbutus_unedo Fruit is edible, but bland and mealy apparently.
