Default Re: Seeds for Quất, possibly the most attractive and hardy citrus…

Richard, you have finally forced me to admit, that the quat are even larger than the largest
cherries I have ever eaten.

Tony, to the first article you have linked, the number of seeds in the Quất is very varied. I have
encountered fruit with a seed or two in every segment, but more often the whole fruit without
any seed at all. I would say they averaged about 3 to 4 seeds/fruit.

To your second article, the sweetness of the Quất rivals that of the sweetness of any citrus fruit,
I have ever sampled. I do have to add the caveat, though, that I only started eating them late
in the fruiting season, when they were fully ripened.
