I’m wondering if there is a place they can grow mangosteen in China. Seems like all the rest they have the climate (mangoes are grown in Hainan). Not sure if Hainan and Yunnan get too cold in the winter.
They look like Peruvian pepino melons.
Some out of season fruits being sold there. Probably imported from Thailand? And the out of season durian is also probably imported from Thailand. They have durian year round in Thailand because they resort to artificial pollination method.
Some durian flavoured snacks in Malaysia have “not Thai durian!” printed on the packaging. Malaysia rejects Thai durian for being inferior. Durian requires very specific natural conditions to produce fruit and is highly seasonal.
What city is this? Looks Southern to me. The small red persimmons remind me of East Guangdong. The large amount of Buddha-hand citron suggest Guangxi.
(You should definitely try the small red persimmons, they’re awesome.)
Thanks! I’ve enjoyed this fruit before, but have only known it by Chinese name.
Don’t know if it’s the season, it’s in just about every fruit venue.
The melon was in our welcome amenities, and just saw it in the supermarket this afternoon.
Good sized Pomelo for about usd$0.50!! Going for.$5.00+ back home.
@Carmenere We’re in Ningbo now. The fruit pics above from our time in Hangzhou.
This smaller softer Persimmon is indeed delicious.
