Miracle Fruit

I like gardening a lot. I really dont know when i start to have this kind of interest. After i saw a TV programme that introduce the miracle fruit, i always looking for the miracle fruit plant. I get to know the plant can be found in Sungai Buluh.

Why this fruit called miracle fruit? Will it create miracle? Let me introduce miracle fruit to you. The fruit is a small bright red, ellipsoid berry approximately 2 to 3 cm long and containing a single seed. Although not sweet itself, when a single fruit is eaten and the fleshy pulp allowed to coat the taste buds of the tongue and inside of the mouth, an extraordinary effect occurs. The fruit will now allow one to eat a slice of lemon or lime without wincing. The marvelous aroma and inherent sweetness of the citrus remains but the sourness is almost completely covered. The effect remains for some 30 minutes or more.

One day, i will find the miracle fruit and plant it at my backyard......One day.......
