Patiently waiting for that perfect shade to lick these delicious little treats. Water Apples (Syzygium aqueum) are not actually apples but belong to the same family of plums, apricots, peaches, cherries, raspberries, pears and almonds. The water apple trees bloom and fruit sporadically nearly all year, though somewhat less in summer than at other times. A mature water apple tree will yield 5 lbs of fruit each season. The texture is crisp, almost crunchy when the fruit is ripe and freshly picked. They contains one to four medium hard, round seeds, which rattle around inside the fruit. The seed as well as the root are regarded as poisonous. ・・・ #growninhaiti #waterapple #syzygiumaqueum #fresh #almostready #ripening #plantedfromcutting #propagation #foodforest #agroforestry #fruit #tropicalfruit #rarefruit #haiti #ayiti #foodsecurity #diversity #variety #growth https://www.instagram.com/p/B_fXHJwFGCw/?igshid=1ehhkwv13enjj
