I have been inviting everyone to taste the Japanese dogwood fruit. It’s amazing how many people will eagerly taste something when you tell them that it tastes bad.
Here is little Grayson’s reaction.
The neighborhood kids decided a more fitting name for the kousa fruits was “dingleberries”. For the uninitiated, “dingleberry” is slang for poo that’s left hanging from the fur of the rear end of a cat.
Marna suspects that the fruits simply aren’t ripe yet. I hope she is right!

Wait until the "dingleberries" are reddish purple. Then squeeze the orange pulp into your mouth. Do not eat the skin. And spit out the the seeds. I think it tastes like a citrusy mango....but to each their own
Oooh, thanks for the tip Greg!
Greg, you were right! Thanks!
