Passion fruit and natal plum blessed!

 


I picked the two passion fruit today! We had a nice juice with them at lunch and dinner today. This fruit is one of my favorite. My spouse got some from a friend from work, I think they came form Colombia, anyway, we grew them with seed, this year they produced two fruit. We really enjoyed them today! So delicious! I also had one natal plum [from the Carissa plant] ready, nice and bright red, we will try in the morning with our fruit. Then I will plant that seed. I love planting seeds. We have so much growing here now. We enjoyed two pineapples earlier this year, they were so sweet. We have so many papaya trees growing now, pineapples, coconuts, mangos, avocados, passion fruit, date palms, we even have Brazilian pepper or Florida Holly[I love the red berries that come on it around Christmas time], which I am going to dry and make some ground pepper with them with the pink peppercorns [I have so many Holly bushes/Brazilian Pepper,  so I should be able to make enough pepper for the entire year and won't have to buy any this year]. We also have a few hibiscus bushes, a red and peach, so I use them for our teas as well. Then we have lemon grass, which we also use for teas. We even have a lot of wild Florida ground cherries growing and have enjoyed them this year.  I love herbs and fruits and vegetables. It is nice to grow your own things. I have been growing so many plants, I have leaded how to grow from clippings the sage plant I have, now it is growing all around my property along with the Florida Holly, and Clusia. God's plants are a blessing and I love planting seeds. Yesterday at church I got more Christmas Palm seeds, they are bright red now, so I will plant more of them. I am just so blessed by God with so many things from nature that God made for us to enjoy!
