In the picture is the not so common fruit called Abiu. They say that it came from South America and already being cultivated in our tropical country. I chanced upon this fruit in the Sunday market and I believe that there is only 1 vendor with that fruit because it is not common here and people don’t even know what fruit it is.
Abiu is like the star apple that is sweet with texture similar to plum. I actually had planted twice the tree which is just small with thin branches. My tree had bore flowers for 2 seasons already but no fruit came out so I cut it down. The second tree was also the same so I surrendered that Abiu wouldn’t bear fruit in our place.

I have never seen a fruit like that!
In Kerala, India, some fruit growers are growing this fruit, but I haven’t tasted it as this is only information.
