Just after the autumn, the weather in Guangdong is still very hot, and today a few of our friends met and drove to a mountain village to play. After more than an hour of travel, we finally arrived at our destination, a small mountain village deep in Luofu Mountain in Boluo County, Guangdong Province.
Here is a mountain village, there are not many people, look around, green water and green mountains, full of green world, occasionally you can see the flowers blooming by the small river, from a distance, although the flowers are very small, in the red flowers, it is also a little red mood in the evergreen bushes, and more importantly, the climate is pleasant.
This small orchard is a friend's family, planted a lot of fruit trees, unfortunately we came this time is not the time, although the tree is full of fruit, but it will not ripen until late autumn, although the fruits in front of us are all fruit, but we can only look at the fruit and sigh. Originally this year's longan is a bumper harvest year, the market is also very cheap to buy, if you personally pick from the tree, you will have another feeling, even more wonderful. But when it was already missed, I saw that there were still some lonely figures left on the longan tree, and a few fruits were still hanging on the branches, swaying in the breeze, and it was already old-fashioned. Although there are many other varieties of fruit, you can only look at the green and unripe fruit without the opportunity to taste. Fortunately, in this kind of place, you can enjoy the cool weather and enjoy the beauty of nature, which is also a pleasure, and it is not worth the trip.
Although my friend's orchard is not large, but there are many varieties planted, my friend told us that he now lives in the city and rarely returns to the countryside. His family has a few acres of dry land and does not want it to be abandoned, so he planted fruit trees, and when he has time, he will come back to weed and fertilize, and after several years of hard work, he has now begun to grow fruit, which makes people feel more accomplished.
After several years of cultivation, and now it is time to bear fruit, oranges, longan, plums, starfruit, pomegranates, lemons, everything is available.
What is more eye-catching is the two kiwi fruits that have already borne fruit, which are usually rare and hang in front of us today. This fruit is called lucuma fruit. Lucuma is said to be native to the tropical regions of Cuba and North America, mainly distributed in Central and South America, northeast India, northern Myanmar, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and southern China. It is a tropical plant. After the introduction of my southern planting.
According to the information: lucuma fruit, also known as fairy peach. It is a perennial plant, the body of the tree is generally about 6 m tall, single-leaf alternate, the leaves are papery, narrow oval, the flowers are small white, polygonal in the leaf axils.
The fruit is spherical, green when underripe, ripe yellowish green to orange yellow, smooth, thin skin, orange-yellow flesh, rich in starch, texture like egg yolk, and has an aroma, less water content, slightly sweeter taste, some people think that the taste of lucuma fruit tastes like sweet potato and durian, between the two. The fruit does not ripen until December, and when it is harvested, let it sit for a few days and eat it after it is ripe.
It was hot today, and we admired it in the orchard, sweating profusely, but still in high spirits. Looking at the green fruits hanging on the tree, there are single ones, there are multiple ones hanging on a branch, different shapes, and the brakes are good-looking. Unfortunately, it is not ripe yet, and there is no chance to taste this delicious fruit.
In the middle of the epidemic, try not to go far, but can not bear the loneliness, to the nearest place with few people and close to nature, in fact, is also a good choice, tourism is not limited to famous mountains and rivers, scenic spots, the key is to play a good mood, will understand that the scenery is everywhere. Although it is not far away, it can also have a poetic feeling.
