Having just experienced fruiting for the first time this year,
I can tell you they are red. They are not "scarlet", but more
orange red, like a ripe tomato.
Interestingly, when I opened the fruits to remove the seeds,
the pulp itself was very red and had a a waxy substance.
It also smelled very appetizing, believe it or not, somewhere
between a ripe tomato and a ripe passion fruit.
Each fruit had one seed, although one contained two. The seeds
look exactly like okra seeds.
