I think it was called a unqe fruit. Which kinda creeped me out cuz I wondered exactly what a unqe fruit is. Tastes kinda like a grapefruit, but dryer, an old orange? lemon? Why is it so big?<br /><br />The grafting trees together makes me think of stories my husband tells me about his grandfather. And old Italian man that grafted a pear and a peach tree. Also grew tomatoes that he fertilized with his cigar butts.<br /><br />I enjoy how your stories give me a peek in at you.Authentic Imperfectionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04762250188776711632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4300332596847087857.post-83190259830614319112012-04-13T11:43:05.678-07:002012-04-13T11:43:05.678-07:00i have never seen anything like it before. in the ...i have never seen anything like it before. in the last picture, it actually looks like a pomelo though.JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09615777330854552040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4300332596847087857.post-6630908438791699502012-04-13T11:28:07.034-07:002012-04-13T11:28:07.034-07:00Great story!
