I have been harvesting my Fuyo persimmons and Fuji apples at intermittent days to give to our friends since I'll be gone for 3 weeks starting Decemer 8.

a couple of key limes, a naranjilla, and a few dwarf cherry tomatoes. Overall, not too bad for January in Indiana!
It makes you feel like you "pulled one over" on Mother Nature!

I went up into the orchard looking for some extra masonry bricks. Didn't find the bricks, but ended up filling a 3 gallon bucket with ripe purple passion fruits (Frederick variety).

I harvested all of my satsuma tangerine and most of my navel orange today. I made fresh orange juice for breakfast and got some fuji apples.

The Noni is a fruit to will cure any problem that you might have. It helps your arthritis, gingivitis and even hemorrhoids. It works like Arnica. Noni works better then Arnica because it is more expensive. The plant will grow in the south Florida and I saw one about 15 tall with a large crop of fruit in Key West. Some ripe dropped on the street and it smell very bad to me. I have osteo-arthritis an friends made me try both of them. I can't say that either did anything for me. But if you are interested about Noni go to: Google Image Result for http://coconutgirlwireless.files.wordpress.com/2007/09/noni.jpg

We have a lot of noni here both wild and cultivated. Yuk - looks like something dead! Extensively sold for it's healthy attributes. Not tried it myself but people swear by it.

I have jabotacaba coming out of my ears. This is the first crop of the year. My wife has made two batches of jelly and one of the members of banana org. came over and picked few pounds and took home the jelly recipe. If anyone of the group wants to pick some fruit email me.

O.K., I edited the first paragraph in the "Uses" section of the above Wikipedia article to accurately reflect the citation (#16).

jnstropic,

Awesome Jabotacaba fruit!! Even last years harvest did not look quite that good for me!!!

What I harvested today does not even compare, Papaya and some Passion fruit.

I have one ripening Jabotacaba fruit and hundreds of very small green fruit.

Best wishes,

Today I harvested miracle fruit and Passion fruit. The one Jabotacaba fruit that was almost ripe was harvested by the birds. The Jabatacaba is just about to bloom heavily.

Bencelest, congratulations on the harvest. Here in Florida it is an early season fruit that is very good November through December. After that the fruit begins to dry out, and by Febuary is very dry with little juice in it.

I had large fruiting trees in central Florida, among them were Washington Navels and the Cara cara or Red Navel. They were great!

Best wishes to my California friends,
