Catherine-- yes, they make a fruit. They look closest to a mango, but come in a hand like bananas. They have a yellow flesh and tropical taste, kind of a cross between banana and pineapple. They must be eaten fresh, as they become bitter if allowed to begin browning. Great in fruit salads and smoothies.
A couple of my hats are soapmaker and gardener. A simple, green lifestyle is what I aspire to, and something I continue to learn about. The organic gardens here grow food, flowers & herbs. This home was built with the help of several other folks. It took many years, but is now my sanctuary, and where I'm learning to honor my creativity. Believing words are powerful, along with soapmaking, is how the blog was named, rather than there being any exceptional cleanliness here on the homestead :o). Thanks for taking this journey along with me!

Those are really pretty! Do they become a fruit? I think I've heard of Pawpaw as something edible.
