So cool! Is anybody growing this, or have tasted this fruit?
DuncanYoung:
Thanks for the great links! I am waiting for my fruit to ripen so that we can harvest some seeds. Will let you know.

Duncan, if you have any left over, I would love them! I have been looking for this fruit for a long time!
carraig:
We aren't warm enough to grow this to maturity, but we usually have seeds and seedlings available of various Monkey Orange species.
Depending on the season we have:
Strychnos spinosa
Strychnos cucculoides
Strychnos madagascariensis
Strychnos pungens
Let me know if I can help.
Regards,
Carraig
