Mustard seeds? Peppercorns? I do believe you could grow a real pepper tree, inji :)
Once upon a time, there was a plant at granma's house. We called it mulberry plant. The baby fruits looked exactly like the ones in your picture. It tasted sour. Then it turned red and then black I guess. It was fun to watch different colors on the tree. We, the kids, used to fight for the berries. The end!
I think it's young peppercorns, saw many of these kinds in Coorg! But hell, would you be growing even PEPPER at home? The next thing i know is that you have your own SALT PAN too... LOL
yup mulberry it is... a million percent... we had two huge trees in our backyards and like rp said, they wud look exactly like this,sour to taste, turn red then dark purple.... i wud climb the branches and sit the whole day plucking and eating...wow i wud have my teeth all stained (childhood memories all coming back)
This is Shankari,when we went for a AR Rahman show, he stressed on voting for Taj Mahal to be one of the seven wonders, I have attached the link, please pass the word around
I bought a jasmine plant from a chinese grocery store...Without thinking really, they had some for $25 and the scent of jasmine made me so nostalgic that I just bought one without thinking where or how I would take care of it... We had many kinds of jasmine at my granmas place and I so badly wanted one...
Well, here comes the trouble - I am not sure how to take care of it... I have been looking up the net, but now it seems all the more difficult and confusing... I loved plants in India and was very comfortable in the garden... But somehow the northeastern weather just scares the heck out of me...
Anyway, coming to the crux of it- could you maybe point me to websites/resources which have details on how to take care of jasmine...
Btw, I am lurker who is usually following the happenings in the Indian food blog scene... I just have fun reading stuff you guys write abt... I know you are into gardening and when the reality of having to take care of a plant dawned on me, I thought I would ask you...
Yeah,I too support Asha!Hope we win!!! Can guess only Indian...So threatening to post Indian,pref keralite plants :),hereafter.. Illengil...,Samaram cheyyum,Samaram cheyyum..:)
It is red Mulberry! It was at my grandmom's house and we would eat them and our mouth would be deepred and we would scare our parents saying we are bleeding.... :) When ripe,it is sooooo sweeett...just like memories.
