I don't like that it has eggs. Furit shouldn't have eggs. Yet another sign god isn't real or he is god damn maniac

Looks kind of like pomegranate

Never heard of this, but now I crave it!

I have a family member that grows these. They're really good! They have a citrus taste much like a lime, but they're not as acidic so you can just eat them straight off the plant.

You want alien babies growing inside you because this is how you get alien babies growing inside you.

I've had three of these growing for like, years, and I'm yet to get a fruit.

Mine took 7 year's until it did.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Question, for years, mine out out plenty flowers. then all of sudden , the last 2 years, no flowers.

also, I planted 2 more thinking it needed maybe another plant to cross with. Did you need that or was one enough?

[–] Longmactoppedup@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

One was enough.

I had lots of flowers for a couple of years and no fruit. I suspect that was caused by not giving it enough water around this time of year. (I'm in Perth)

What uhh what sunlight conditions?

I've moved mine several times because it wasn't growing and it's ended up in a very shady spot.

[–] Longmactoppedup@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

Part sun / part shade.

Mines in a large pot so I try to keep it where it won't get the afternoon sun in summer, but gets a bit of sun in winter.

Meanwhile I got a (small) pineapple after only like three years. But this was in Orlando so close enough to their natural habitat.

I got a handful of these limes from a local farm and ate them with tacos. Delightful.
