Frillylily said:Should also note that as you know the fruit is soft and ripens very quickly. I am not aware of a way to store it for very long. I don't know if they are good frozen or canned but it doesn't seem likely. It would just be eating fresh and a short season, I think?


Virtually zero shelf life. The best fruit is secured on a tree a day or so before they fall. Smiling They bruise easily. It is possible to let ripen after picked, but that does not produce the best taste. Mine were fully ripened - I picked them up off the ground.

Doanno about canning, but some peeps use them in frozen things.
