Summertime

Green & Orange, lovely.

Now the Rukam fruits are growing. A check online, the fruits are indeed edible - raw or cooked. 

Some other uses mentioned (I'm not sure though) :
  • The immature fruit is rich in tannins and is used to prepare a traditional medicine to treat diarrhoea and dysentery. 
  • The juice of the leaves is applied to inflamed eye-lids. 
  • A root decoction is taken by women after childbirth.
