Painted Tea Olive... by marlboromaam

Painted Tea Olive...

Or also known as Sweet Olive. I can certainly tell why this shrub is in the olive family of plants. This is the fruit produced after the blooms. Posted here - https://365project.org/marlboromaam/extra-stuff/2020-06-14

Something strange is happening to that fruit right now. Perhaps a photo tomorrow will reveal it.
Great info. Nice shot. Never seen it.

@dutchothotmailcom Thank you, Esther! It's a pretty common cultivated shrub around here. There are several varieties. Most people grow it for the scent.

Wonderful shot of these rather unusual olives. Never heard of them before, are the edible?

@ludwigsdiana Thanks, Diana! When you go to your plant nursery - ask. I don't know if they grow well in your part of the world or not. The fruit really as no taste - I tried it yesterday. The bright red seeds inside are as hard as pebbles.

@aikiuser Thank you very much, Jenn!

@wakelys Thanks, Susan!

@mittens Thank you!
