Kousa Dogwood Fruit - a photo on Flickriver

"If you have this tree in your yard or know someone who does, try to beat the critters to the fruit. They are usually creamy, delicate, and sweet; although they do have some seeds as well. The larger and darker red the fruit, the riper and mature it is, the sweeter and less astringent. Unripe and barely ripe fruit can have a tiny bit of persimmon-like pucker to it.. The flavor can vary as well, depending upon what type of Kousa dogwood it is. Some are tastier than others, and I have found that the fruit from some trees varies over the years. The fruit from mature trees tends to be much bigger and sweeter than that from young trees."
