Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Cherries!
« on: July 01, 2014, 06:30:16 PM »I'm a fan of the Jamaica Cherry (Muntingia calabura). It heavily bears a tiny but tasty fruit. It is not very similar to true cherry. It a padanus or vanilla taste element that I find appealing. I don't have any experience growing it - just enjoyed standing under the neighborhood tree and eating ripe berries off it
I agree, they are delicious , productive and fast growing chocolate/vanilla flavor but... their roots are invasive and crawl Waaayyy away from the tree putting up suckers. Mine is getting cut down because of this.
Oh, The taste of Surinam reminds me of throwing up at my first keg party.
