Araticum fruit, continued
To my disappointment, I discovered that the araticum had been picked from the tree much too early. The fruit pulp and seeds hadn't reached maturity. You can see from looking at the seeds that they haven't fully developed. I planted them anyway, hoping that maybe one or two might germinate. The missing fruit? The suspect of taking the fruit will be on vacation for the next 30 days. I predict that it was also immature. It doesn't make any difference, I'll eventually come by another araticum.
