This is a great climbing tree for kids and they can sit in it for hours going from branch to branch picking tasty fruit - one of my favourite childhood memories.

Pick them before they turn red, for they fall off when ripe and will make a mess and attract insects and mice; they will ripen from orange to red after picked with no loss in flavor.
