From what I recall, the Carmine can be divided into four varieties: Palace Pink, Full Red, Born Red, and Big Leaf Red; with palace pink and full red being the best.

not  “four varieties”，It's five series.

宫粉红 gong fen hong --Palace Pink
全红 quan hong --Full Red
出世红chu shi hong --Born Red
大叶红da ye hong --Big Leaf Red
七月红qi yue hong --July Red

七月红是最多人种植的一个系列（ July Reds are one of the most widely grown series.）

“宫粉红”and “全红”不是最好吃的吗？为什么大家喜欢种植七月红呢？

The tree is the original variety of YangMei.  It can produce fruits but smaller than DongKui and not as sweet as other varieties, but the tree is a lot easier to grow than the other and the successful rate is higher.  I might graft some other varieties to it.

If I have to pick one, ruby seedless.  Both of them are very good.

I don't have a picture of inside, maybe later this year.  I brought a grafted tree recently.  It still small I hope I can have one or two fruits this year.

胭脂红是广州市郊主栽品种。胭脂红番石榴，本地群众称之为鸡屎果，该品种色泽鲜红，果肉厚，爽脆嫩滑，营养丰富，是以鲜食为主，深受广大群众欢迎的水果品种。又名大塘番石榴等，可分宫粉红、全红、出世红、大叶红4个品系，以宫粉红、全红为佳。宫粉红果梨形，中等大，平均单果重82克，肉质滑，味清甜，成熟果皮有一半变粉红，6月中旬至7月下旬成熟。全红果梨形，中等大，平均单果重78克，果皮中等厚，成熟时全果深红色有光泽，肉质粗，风味中等，果实6月中旬至7月下旬成熟。宫粉红和全红均宜发展。

Carmine is the main variety grown in the suburbs of Guangzhou.  Carmine guava, known as chicken feces fruit by local people, is bright red in color, has thick flesh, is crisp and tender, and is rich in nutrients. It is a fruit variety that is mainly eaten fresh and is very popular among the masses.  Also known as Datang guava, etc., it can be divided into four varieties: palace pink, full red, born red, and big leaf red, with palace pink and full red being the best.  The palace pink fruit is pear-shaped, medium-sized, with an average fruit weight of 82 grams.
