RE: Dreaming of a Minimalist Home

It's called macopa here. I think we still have one in the backyard. The one we have usually have pink fruits but I remember seeing dark red ones when I was younger. The ones I've tasted here in the Philippines are not very sweet but they're very juicy and refreshing. Awww it's sad seeing trees get uprooted.. Maybe, you can plant it where you live now?

Yes, I read that the Philippines are two different textures of the fruit. There was a lady who lived a few houses from me who had macopas that looked similar to yours. I always wondered why they were so different.

I live in the UK now so I don't think they would grow here. It's a tropical fruit, and I've read that it's in some parts of Africa too:)
