ripe manila palms
another ripe fruit
It's green when unripe
Good afternoon, everyone.
It's raining every day here in the Philippines now, and I haven't gone out since our Recognition Day last week. It's not fun going out in the rain because you get wet and do not enjoy the things you want to do. This morning, the sun was still out, and it was a good day until after 12 noon. It started pouring with loud thunderstorms. Before the rain started when I woke up, I went to our patio to see our three stray kitties. They stay there and they love to play around. They even broke my mom's plants. Then I saw some fruits of our palms fall to the ground. These palms look like coconuts but are smaller and have wider leaves. My mom says it's called Manila Palm. So the fruits are bitter, but if you soak them in water overnight and remove the bitter taste, they taste like coconut. The fruits look green, but when they are ripe, they look red, and they start to harden. Here are some of the photos I took and am sharing as my entry to @friendlymoose's POB Photography Contest: Fruit.
That's all for now and thank you for reading. Have a great day to all of you.
Xoxo,

Good day to you @naniplayergamer, those manila palms are so unusual to me, I have never heard of them. They are a very attractive fruit especially when they turn red. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy the day.
Where are you from @farm-mom ? These are tropical fruits and are everywhere here.
Thank you for reading.
Hi, I am from the United States and those fruit may be available down south but I am in the northeast, New York and have never seen them before. They are lovely.
Oh, cool. My dad is also from the US in Las Vegas. They also have palms there but not as what we have here in the Philippines.
Ohh! very nice pictures @naniplayergamer 😍. I didn't know this fruit, thank you very much for showing them and making your culture known. A hug from Venezuela.
Thank you @luisacarola 🍒
It's good that the sun has risen and you could enjoy the natural beauty.
Your shots are beautiful @naniplayergamer
Thank you, @miprimerconcurso
