A strange flower for a juicy fruit...

2007.06.15
1- The flowers...

2- Closer ones and on the right the start of a fruit...

3- The flower is kind of thick...

4- Inside the flower...

5- The fruit...

6- Closer...

7- That one is dry (eaten on the other side)...

8- The juicy fruit...

9- As a kid, I made necklaces with the seeds...

At my parents, I had to strech out my arm and get a "pomme cannelle" it's almost like a soursoap, for the taste and flesh. I think it's also called soursoap... but you'll let me know if I'm wrong...
The tree was growing and reached the balcony from where we could get its fruits easily, if the birds did not tasted it before us. It's areal game with them....
One day, I told myself that if there are fruits, it has to have flowers before... and I had a big surprise when I discovered that flower, that does not look like any other one I had met since then...
It's your turn (if you never did too) !

fishbud Annona squamosa (Sugar-apple, Sweetsop or Custard Apple). We called them "Noi-Na" in Thai. Very sweet and luscious fruit!. The seeds can be dangerous for small childrend though. My mom didn't like us having them too much when we were younger :p
