Nice man, congrats, that’s awesome. Was your tree grown from seeds from Marcos? I’ve got a couple small seedlings doing really well. How long did it take to fruit? Hopefully it doesn’t taste like garlic

Seed came from Miguel in Portugal... took about 3 years to start blooming and 4 to actually set fruit (This year).
As far as taste... I haven't tried one yet... want to let them get so ripe they drop on their own.

Looks almost the same as my pyriformis x lutescens and they take about 3 years. Most sweet pyriformis are probably these. The fruit vary from tree to tree in size and some are very sweet.
Here are some and a pitomba id with them.
