Whats this fruit ?
It is not a fig, and it is definitely not a kumquat. A kumquat is a small citrus fruit, so a kumquat has a rind like a lemon or orange. By the way, sweet kumquats are delicious!



It is a Loquat, which is often called a "Japanese Plum" here.

They are very juicy and somewhat sweet and tasty when bright yellow or orange. We have a couple of these trees near where I park my car at work, and I watched the fruit as it began to ripen. One day, a squirrel was just gorging herself on the fruit. Later, I saw a bird eating all of the fruit that the squirrel left behind. They cleaned that tree in a day or two! I was sorry that I didn't get to eat many, but far be it from me to steal food from a squirrel!
Reply:Loquat for sure. Chinese people use it for medicinal purposes (as a child my mom would give me loquat cough syrup--which was thick like molasses but tasted pretty good!). The fruit tastes fabulous if you pick it at the right time. The seeds are rather large.
Reply:I don't think it is a fig...



Damn...



It looks so famaliar but I just can't bring to mind what it is...



I'll keep the pic up and if it comes to mind, I will edit.
Reply:The correct answer is a Loquat or Japaneese plum.

They are usually a little sour, but if picked at just the right time they are very good to eat.

The reason it looks so different is because it isn't ripe yet.
Reply:Im not sure those are fruits, they might be or they are just baby fruits
