Awesome. I use to find lilly pilly around my area when I was younger. I always found them sweet but had a drying after taste. Not sure if that was normal.
That’s called Tart & yes perfectly normal. You should taste the Jambolan plum that super Tart, but makes an amazing jam, bit of an alternative to quince paste, awesome with cheese. I love it spread on cold cheese on cold toast 😋 Jambolan plums are slightly smaller than a cherry, the bats love them up here in FNQLD - they’re a very fast growing tree & similar looking to a gum tree, I had 3 trees in my old house & now have heaps of smaller trees in pots that grew from seed.
I wanted to see a close up into the white bowls and know the name of the different varieties & what they look like. Then I wanted to see you cut the darker berry that was sitting in your hand when you cut the lighter berry. Do they have dark flesh as well as skin? I used to pick & eat these that were growing over an alley way fence on my way to school in Elizabeth West SA 40+ years ago, I never knew until today what they were, I used to call them crab apples I have no idea why, now I know they’re Lilly Pillys, I’ve had a plant in a big pot for 5 years & this year I’ve got bunches of berries on it, hence why I am researching all about them & what to do with them. I might make some Jam with them when they’ve finished growing, I actually didn’t know the plant was going to fruit so it’s a pleasant surprise. Some of the berries are almost white does that mean they’re not ripe? Because the other berries are a much deeper pink but not the dark cherry coloured ones you have there, I’d like a dark one especially if it has dark flesh also. What variety is the dark one called?
Love it!! Thank you
Great video! Excellent information. I hope you are still going with it all. 🇦🇺
Many thanks for this great video. Our 3 year old hedge of 6 trees has just started fruiting. I'm excited to use the fruit and appreciate your video x

Great videos! Do you know if the variegated cultivars are also edible?
Interesting video. So I can safely use the stems/leaves to decorate a cake?

You didn’t say what temp to set the dehydrator & how long it takes?
Hi, can you please explain why your link at your intro video page doesn't open? Nor do searches locate it?
Can you eat the seed?
You sure about the B12?
