I chanced upon the fruit in the picture as I was going to the market. It looked edible but I do not know what it really is. Maybe I have to wait until it ripens and probably I would taste it. I just hope that it is not poisonous, waheehee.

Never ever eat fruits of plants that you are not familiar with no matter how attractive or tempting. Some contain very strong irritants and some have alkaloid poisons in doses that can make breathing or the heart stop. Have you heard of " tuba tuba " poisonings in our country?

Yes, the tuba-tuba is poisonous but it doesn't look attractive to eat like this one in the picture. Anyway, If in 2 weeks time I could not post the picture of the ripe fruits then that means I might have been poisoned, waheehee.

@Alexandoy wahihihi. Let us know how it looks when it ripens. The tuba was attractive to young school children who were the ones mostly poisoned.

Maybe if you pick one you can ask someone if they know what it is ..... the leaves look big so they aren't gooseberries.

the easy answer is, use plant snap on your phone. It will tell you right away what it is and if it is safe!
