Prickly pear cactus fruit up close. Since y'all loved the previous post

Took another set of pictures of the thorns of the prickly pear cactus fruit. It stained the fingers like a mulberry usually does. Found a ton of seeds inside as well. I think I'm suddenly a fan of this fruit. It tasted waay better than the white flesh dragon fruit I find at stores.

Interesting cactus fruit I tried today

Wasn't really sure if it was edible or not. Tried it anyways lol. Gpt later gave me an taste description wand it was exactly the same. The flesh is usually juicy, soft, and packed with tiny crunchy seeds. Taste-wise, it's often described as a mix of watermelon, pear, and berry, with mild sweetness and a refreshing, slightly floral flavor.

One of the worst parasites that slowly kills your trees

They latch on to the trees and slowly kill them. This was on my red guava tree. Not sure what species they are but here in local language we call them "Ithil"

Barbados cherries are so underrated

They're so easy to grow. Fruits abundantly.

extremely high in vitamin C. Sweet tart flavour. Juicy as hell. Perfect summer snack. Plus they have beautiful flowers.

The cutest Abiu I've grown yet

Tastes so much sweeter. Might be cuz the fruit is smaller or cuz it's summer here in India

Red and white Guava

Both are really sweet and are local wild varieties. The fruits of the white one gets almost 4-5 times the size while red one can get almost twice as big as shown here. Both trees are around 30 years old and gives tons of fruit

Annona squamosa:

It has a soft, custard-like flesh that’s slightly grainy, with black seeds embedded inside. The taste is intensely sweet, with notes of vanilla, banana, and a hint of pineapple, making it feel more like a natural dessert than a typical fruit.

Strawberry guava (Psidium cattleianum) is small but packed with flavor—soft, slightly grainy, and juicy like regular guava, with tiny edible seeds.

Taste-wise, it’s sweet and fragrant with a distinct strawberry-like note, balanced by a mild tang, making it feel like a mix of guava + strawberry + a hint of passionfruit.
