 Do they still have trees that grow this?

  1. We used to have this fruit tree beside our house those days, very sweet fruit…we don’t know the English name 😂 early morning just go under the tree, you will see ripe one’s that fell by themselves…select the good ones, rinse and refrigerate them for evening consumption

    1. We later let them dry up & break to eat the almond nut.
      I like the red ones 😁

    1. Market ke? 😀
      Beloved, I don't think I ever saw it sold @the market. It's usually grown in homes with large compounds. Some have tarty taste & some are sweet. I prefer the nut though.

  11. We used to have it in my compound until the roots started spreading to the foundation of the house and we were advised to cut it down.
    I don't like the taste.
