All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

Yea they fruit great, we haven't harvested any yet but they should be ready soon. (Or now I better check). They are so delicious
Nice! Cherimoya and lúcuma are the two cold fruits that I wish that I could grow.
Yea we can grow lùcuma here to (my uncle grows some), but Im not a big fan of it. Though I haven't tried one since a kid so I should try it again (lots of my other food preferences have changed). How do you like to eat them? I've heard they are best in smoothies?
I've only eaten them out of hand, unadulterated. That's how I eat almost everything. It's like cherimoya: rip it open and have oral-sex-at-a-distance with the tree, but don't eat the outside green part or the seeds. Sometimes they don't ripen perfectly, so they can be a bit dry or bland, but a good lúcuma has a texture between canistel and mamey sapote and a flavour almost like caramel. (I've never actually eaten caramel, but I can imagine.)
