ALECTRYON - HAIRY BIRDS EYE
Botanical Name: Alectryon tomentosus
Description
Other Names: Woolly Rambutan
The fleshy aril is quite pleasing to the taste, although there isn’t much of it; but the seeds are cyanide collectors, and toxic, especially if chewed. Great caution should be exercised if you are tempted to try these fruits.
