Bush Tucker

In our garden we have a Davidson Plum tree.......a type of tree that I have never seen before......the fruit grows on the trunk.

I love to watch the development of the fruit ...at the moment it is a lovely fresh green which when ripe turns into a sort of purple......they will probably be ready for picking around Christmas time.......much better than cranberry sauce on the Turkey.
Some info:

Davidson Plum

The Davidson Plum (sour plum) can be found in tropical rainforests in Queensland and northern NSW.

This beautiful palm shaped tree has graceful fronds with fine hairy stems and on the underside of leaves. It produces clusters of large dark blue to black plums 4-5cm in diameter.

The dark red flesh contains two unusual flat seeds and has a wonderfully acidic plum flavour. The skin is thin but on the tougher, leathery side, and is covered with very fine hairs.
