Lets talk about fruits...

Birth of a fruit

Closed flower

Profile :)

The tasty fruit, very sweet !

.... but they all start with flowers !!!
We call them "Pomme liane", it's close to Passion fruit or "Maracudja", same family.
The passion fruit's flower is usely white. And this fruit is really sweet, we don't make juice out of it, we eat it from the tree, including the small black seeds, if birds or any other animal did not come before !!!
Most of the people do not notice the flower that is very often hidden behind the leaves. They only care about the fruit (kind of rare nowaday), but my mum had the great idea to have planted it in her garden !!!!

lamoon53 So interesting! I hope you will always include descriptions with your photos. What may seem so ordinary to you is fascinating to most of the rest of us. :-)

Vanouch Je suis bouchebé devant une telle splendeur ! Rien
Vanouch · 2007-05-16: 15:18
Vanouch ... Rien a dire, c'est bien une des plus belle fleur pour moi au monde. Elle porte bien son nom :-)
Moi j'adore les regarder s'ouvrire, c'est bien une des seul fleur chez lequel j'arrive a bien voir bouger les pétales quand elles s'ouvrent. Et puis la texture de la fleur est spéciale j'aime bcp. Mes préférés sont les mauve et fushia. A la Passion ...
