Our fruits

Update 9 Oct 2023

🍇🥑

Do you know Sapote blanco? Pitanga? Chayotes? Here's table of the garden fruits with ripening times, and another table of the fruits from our surroundings, i.e. near Nerja on the Mediterranean coast. We get them as gifts from friends, and we pick fruits from trees in public spaces...

You will only find here fruit trees or perennial plants with edible fruits. Links to our annual plants with fruit: watermelon, courgette

You can read the ripening time from the list below:
"gmg" means fruit from our garden is ripe (m = "many").
"OOO" means fruit from our surrounding is ripe.
