Meloncillo

Guettarda macrosperma

Description:

A beautiful plant with fruit (about 2 cm diameter), related to coffee, the bush were I get the picture is about 6 meters tall, I tasted a fruit and it doesn't have a good flavor, some fruit shows that insects have been eating and probably some birds too. As it is a wild species, there are no uses that we know from it.

Habitat:

Rainforest edges and areas with transition with dry forest
