Who made the bluesimmon
Few years ago I found medlars (German: Mispel) in my local grocery store. Had never seen them before. They look somewhat like apricots but taste like a mix of other fruits. Really tasty for a not so popular fruit. It’s cool to make such a discovery. :)
ah yes, the openarse
I totally read this as “NTFS” and thought this was going to be a joke about shitty file systems.
Not affiliated with them, but if anyone has money to throw at interesting fruit, I got a box of assorted fruit from the Miami Fruit Company for Christmas and it was pretty cool to have weird fruits to munch on for a few days.
There may be other companies doing the same thing maybe with a better assortment or cheaper, but that’s the one I know off the top of my head.
I recommend checking out Weird Explorer if you’re interested in learning about new and weird fruits.
The snozzberries taste like snozzberries.
Every apple tree that’s not grafted is like a new fruit tree
So what are they? My best guesses clockwise from the top:
- Cherry???
- Yangmei/Chinese bayberry
- Apple? But with pink flesh for some reason
- peach? But color is strange
- Some type of persimmon but they’re not normally that blue color, so it may be a less common Diospyros species.
Reverse image search I found somewhere saying they’re Grenadine apples. But there are several types that are pink in the middle. My personal favorite apple ever are Lucy Glo which are also pink 🩷
Persimmon can be blue, but that picture is edited and over-saturated. They’re darker and have a powder coat, like blueberries. Wouldn’t be surprised if the apple picture was also edited, but they can have pink flesh.
I’ve eaten that apple and it actually looks like that.
So I wonder if maybe that blue
oran berrypersimmon has maybe been bred to be bluer?I’ve never seen a blue Japanese persimmon but maybe it varies due to variety.
Sweet cherry, kaki, mulberry, peach(?) and apple(??)
Oops I meant clockwise.
What is that big blueberry?
Maybe diospyros virginiana?
Looks like a big blueberry to me
Looks like a blue persimmon of some sort. Never seen one either.
I had no idea persimmons came in blue, neat!
Is that so?
It looks like the saturation was cranked up on the OP image, the pictures on Wikipedia of Texas persimmons show them as ‘blue’ in the way that blueberries are blue, very dark and almost black. But I only knew of them as orange, so as far as I’m concerned that’s pretty blue!
