This article is one of my favorites. Is anyone growing some of these, such as gingerbread plum or masuku?

 Hi,

 I managed to get a few seeds of these gingerbread  plums (Parinari curatellifolia) last year.
 They took a full year to sprout and are just now emerging.

The picture of Masuku reminds me of Sapodilla, are they the same thing?
