I have been battling the thorny sour ones in my yard for years. They pop up everywhere years after you had plants. I have never had one that isn't sour and can be eaten out of hand. I have heard people talk about types that can be eaten out of hand but has anyone here ever tried really good lulos?
Shame, it seems like a plant prime for improvement.
I saw cacn offering one that had one with sweet meat and sour inside, which I imagine makes it kumquat like. I sent them a message, haven't gotten a response yet but I think theyre on vacation so I may send another. Hopefully they see this post or someone who's had a good one does.
I hopefully won't have to worry too much about invasiveness as my area is pretty cold for a subtropical plant (USDA 8b).
