Erect shrub or small tree Santalum acuminatum.

I couldn`t see the flowers,red fruits are edible,which contains hard seed , which looks,like small round `Rudraksh.

Ushaprabha ji:

wonderful stuff.. thanks... first time I am seeing these sweet and
sour berries that I had heard about...

did you get to taste it? and save the inside seed... ??

a few years ago an NGO was talking about this as an example to help
out the aboriginal australians by getting them to wildcraft the
berries to sell...but they did not show the colorful fruits... only
bottled dried pulp...

I am so glad you are visiting australia and we are profiting from it..
you must a very devoted botanist, i must say...
I am getting to know of you thru these mailings...
thank you
Usha di
