| Acca (Feijoa)sellowiana. The petals are edible and sweet, but watch out for ants who love them. |

| Saltcedar you are BRILLIANT and so quick. Thank you so much. I was challenged to find out the name and you've enabled me to do just that. I'm emailing my companions from our walk this morning, right now - I hope they will be suitably impressed. RM2000 in the UK |

| You may enjoy the fruit. I don't eat mine because I don't like the 'scented' taste but I have a friend who loves them. A lot of people here make jam from them. |
