cedros Posted August 31, 2019 Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 Quote Yes, they smell very nice and the fruit is tasty-a bit like a strawberry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yo1 Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Years ago I found one growing out of the crack in the concrete in a San Diego parking lot and have been in love with them ever since. They have a latex kind of like a euphorbia, even in the edible fruit. They are very drought tolerant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Yes, it's a Carisa. But it's NOT a tree..... it's a shrub. (I know..... picky, picky) VERY long and sharp thorns so great plant where you want to keep invaders in .... or out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
