Caption: In the fall, a 10-yr old shrub produces 7-10 kg of very aromatic fruit. You cannot eat them raw but you can (and you should) make scrumptious jam and an excellent liqueur for the winter :) The taste is like no other!

Caption: This wonderful shrub produces lots of aromatic apple like fruit (5-9 cm). The fragrance of the fruit is strong, a bit exotic and very very pleasant. You can sense it in the fall within 3 m radius of the shrub.
