Re: Rose apple; nursery pics

You know I had the same trouble with snipurl this morning when I tried to send pics of our nursery to someone. If anyone would care to see MG nursery pics, here they are:

For those who asked for a picture of the fruit of the rose apple
[Syzygium jambos], here's a link.

They are about the size of ping-pong balls with single seeds. Seeds
are about the size of green peas, but the cavity is a bit larger, so
the seed rattles around [freestone]. The flesh is white and somewhat
crisp; the skin is a bit tough like a machine-harvested tomato. The
flavor is pleasant--sweet, but not overly so; mild, with a hint of
rose water; and moist, but not juicy. The flavor reminded me of some
lipstick I've tasted. A friend in India [in Mysore] says it's a very
popular fruit there and one of his favorites.
