花园的一角:番鬼荔枝 Custard Apple

In my tiny backyard, there are a few fruit trees for the purpose of providing shades. One of the trees we planted when we moved in is this custard apple plant, one of my childhood favorite fruits.

你们参观一下我的后院!几年前,爸b我爱你用一粒番鬼荔枝种子栽种这棵果树。猜不到它很茂盛,又容易处理!




Surprisingly, the harvest is quite bountiful; the plant flowers all year round and fruits also quite a lot. When it gets to be certain size, my maid will use plastic bags to wrap them till ready to pick so to avoid birds eating them.

果实累累,非常意想不到!






See how nice the flesh is, and very very sweet too!

好甜的,也是有机肥料栽种出来,非常好味道!

    Yeah, and the plant is not very big, yet very fruitful. The fruits are surprisingly sweet and fragrant.
