Saw this beautiful but kinda strange fruit alone on a Short tree in the bush when I visited my friends village, it was so tempting to give it a bite, but I wasn't sure if its a good idea.
Who knows the name and if its safe for consumption

Is that a loquat
Can't say 4 sure.

Should be a loquat or Japanese plum. Indigenous to Far East Asia but can be grown in our climate too.

Its a good source of vitamin C. Its related to pears & apples. The one you posted looks a bit different but I think its a loquat.
