MikeT,
--Wow, that's news to me regarding the supposedly normal appearance. Oh, well... I feel a lot better now about trying to eat them. This is the first time they came out this way, according to my friend and his father, who planted the tree.
Yes, the tree pushes out 1kg monsters as well.
This particular tree has lots of seeds in all the fruits but like all big asian type guavas, they do have a lot of meat to seed ratio.
The Thai seedless in my back yard has tons of growth but no fruits as of yet.
simon_grow,
-- Yes, the other fruit were just as grotesque... From all accounts and knowledge, this is the first time this tree has pushed out bumpy fruit. Everyone is super shocked.
Jackfruitwhisperer69-- Actually, I don't know how it tastes...
.... I was too freaked out to even try to taste it... Call me a coward, but giant Asian guavas here on the island are never (to my knowledge and of my eating experience of 30+ yrs.) bumpy or grotesque like this.... This fruit was from a friend's ageing tree of about 20 + yrs. old and are always-always-always smooth... up until now.
