Hello all of my friends of Hive Universe. I hope you are all well by the grace of Almighty. Today, I am going to talk about star gooseberry fruit tree. Local name of star gooseberry fruit is 'Royal' fruit. Scientific name of star gooseberry fruit is
Phyllanthus acidus.It is also known as Malay gooseberry, country gooseberry, and star berry.
It is an ancient tropical fruit. It is from the euphorbiaceae family. It originated from the tropical regions of Madagascar. This fruit colour is pale-yellow to nearly white. Taste is sour.
In my last vacation I was going to my home town Gopalganj. There we had one star gooseberry fruit tree.
In my childhood we had two big star gooseberry fruit tree. In my childhood I was waiting for my father left. He didn't allow me to climb up this tree. Because the stem of this tree is weak. When he went out, I climbed up in Star gooseberry fruit tree. I like to eat this fruit from the cluster one bye one. When I pick up this fruit by using log stick during that time fruits are spread in the yard and cluster are broken.In my childhood I don’t like to eat this way.
From this tree we can get fruit all around the year. Some are enough mature and ready to eat. Some fruit are small and some are too small and flower also present in this tree at a time.
This time when I went home I saw this fruit tree was containing fruit. I pick up those fruit by using my hand. This tree was not that much tall. So I can reach it's fruit.
