very nice to see the flowers...
Its called chanibor..ચણીબોર in Gujarati.
a small dark red ber...
I remember this was our favorite to eat as my dad took us trekking
along the country roads to introduce us to our native state... we used
pick them right off the tree, and in those days.. there was not the
black soot along country roads that I saw in 2002... so back then we
could eat them right off the tree..now one has to wash them well

Balkarji....you can enjoy these for next few months.. I believe they
ripen in December at least in Gujarat ...
Eat a handful on my behalf... just see that you stay away from the
thorns...


well done, usha di
oh I forgot... show us the red fruits when you eat them....ha ha..
