My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Help ID'ing this fruit? Fig?

21 years ago

I normally post on the Florida forum but this fruit has stumped everyone there and they suggested I come to you. Can someone tell me what this fruit is? The source isn't a tree - it's a shrub with long arching branches. The fruit is about 2.5 to 3 inches.

Is it a fig? Edible?

Thanks for your help!

Kate
