Kei Apple (Seedling) ^6/10

Comments: -

I find Kei Apple very attractive. White bark with glossy dark green leaves. The thorns are very large and I'd imagine could cause a lot of damage if you were to step on one or fall against the bush. 
The fruit have a mild, but sweet flavour. Notes of Apricot. They are smaller than Apricots, smooth, and yellow. The seeds easily detach from flesh when eaten. 

It took a reasonable amount of years before they fruited, however it is probably a bit crowded by our Soursop trees. By our luck, we managed to receive one male and one female.

Governors Plum - seedling (Seedling) ^4/10

Comments: - Quite an attractive bush, but can have very large thorns. I find the small fruit pleasant with a mild sweet flavour. Unfortunately this did not fruit for many years and STILL has very small amounts of fruit, despite there being three adjacent from one another, with beehives closeby.
