? Look at these black, cute little guys, these black grapes, why are they hanging straight on the tree trunks? ! At a glance, it looks like a tree with countless big, round black eyes. Yes, they are tree grapes.

? The Chinese literary name of tree grape is Jiabaoguo, which should be a literal translation from the English name "Jaboticaba". Because the shape and color of the fruit resemble Kyoho grapes, people also call it tree grapes. Jiabao fruit is native to Brazil in South America. It is widely distributed in Taiwan Province in China and was introduced to Fujian and Guangdong in the 1990s.

? Garbo fruit is a tropical fruit. It is very similar to jackfruit, mangosteen, carambola and other tropical fruits. The fruits all grow directly on the trunk or branches. They look like Very strange. The fruits of Jiabao grown in the coastal areas of Guangdong usually mature in spring and autumn and are harvested twice a year. However, in Taiwan or Brazil, where the climate and land are very suitable, it is said that the fruit can be produced in all seasons, and can reach up to 100% per year. As many as five times.

? If you pinch your fingers and count the time it takes for the fruit to mature, it will only be mid-January this year. Not long after picking the fruit, in mid-February, many small flower buds quickly grew. I used my mobile phone to record the process from flowering to fruit maturity. It only took a month and a half. It grew really fast! Especially on warm and humid rainy days, the fruits are still half brown and half green in the morning, but by dusk they have become jet black, shiny and larger.

? Because the fruit grows very quickly, the first flowers will soon grow into small fruit buds, so you often see small white flowers, small green fruits, large green fruits, etc. It is an interesting phenomenon that brown fruits and ripe black fruits hang on the same tree. In order to ensure a good harvest, as soon as brown and ripe fruits appear on the tree, the bird-proof net must be placed on the tree as soon as possible. Otherwise, it won’t take half a day for the greedy birds to peck out the brown and black fruits. A delicious meal. So I would rather let the gauze affect the look and feel than see the fruits being ruined all over the ground.

? The flowers of Jiabao fruit are thin and light yellow, small and fluffy. They seem to have no fragrance, but when the flowering period comes, it is common to see bees buzzing around them. Going straight, it seems that no matter what kind of flower, it has its own tricks to attract fans. The skin of unripe Garbo fruit is thick and sour. When mature, the skin becomes thinner and softer. The flesh is juicy and translucent. It has a strong osmanthus fragrance. The taste and shape are really similar to grapes. No wonder people call it tree grape. .

? The way the tree grape hangs on the trunk, with its dark eyes blinking, is really endearing; sometimes I wonder, if this tree grape is planted in Turpan , what will it be like? ! Hahaha, just thinking about it.
