  • What is this round neon-green fruit with a bumpy surface?

    2 answers



The fruit is a bit greener than shown in the following picture and has a diameter of 8-10 cm (3-4 inches).



I was expecting to see them on a tree, but instead they were coming from tall branches of a shrub. Spotted on a trip to Silistra, Bulgaria in late September.

Looks like Osage Orange (Maclura pomifera). Bulgaria fits, here is a Youtube video which you can compare your tree with.

  • It's an Osage Orange, and I'd like to add that some have thorns as protection from large herbivores which aren't around anymore. It's also why the trees have very hard wood.

    I love the idea that there are still remnants of mastodons today in the natural defenses of some trees and bushes.
