Fruit Salad for Everyone!





Japanese gardener Manabu Fukushima is the proud owner of a tree that produces 11 different kinds of fruit, including "dekopon, hassaku orange, iyoyan, amanatsu, and banpeiyu, a variety of pummelo." (I don't even know what half of those are, which makes it that much more impressive.)

How did he come by such a tree? Find out here.

We learned about that in science class last year(the grafting) you can only graft trees with fruits that are simalar to each other. You can't have an orange branch grafted to an apple tree.

...nope, not one of those fruits is in here. I know ringo (apple) and mikan (orange) but that's about it!
