I've got that to come, I've written off doing anything with fruit after reading the plant ticket. It'll prolly be just a talking place in the fruit bowl. Anyone else have a fruit bowl??

My wife uses the juice (what there is of it) for her hair. I have no idea why. Some old wives' tale no doubt.

I think the peel can be dried - in fact I believe I have some but can't find it - then used to infuse the lime flavour in dishes (I don't think you eat it).

The majority of pomelos are white(ish) and may have a tinge of pink. This one is unusual as it's very red.

Hog plum fruit. Very thin skin, virtually all stone. Tastes similar to a sour greengage.
