Packed with health! This special fruit tree is found in India, among other places, and its fruits are packed with health! The yellow fruits are about 3 cm in diameter and taste slightly bitter when raw (full of antioxidants), yet they are used fresh, but also pickled, as jam, in chutneys, and for baking. The vitamin C content is exceptionally high, so it's logical that the fruits are also used medicinally. Within Buddhism, this fruit also plays a significant role in stories and as a symbol. In the tropics, this becomes a small tree, its leaves resemble an Acacia, here the plant can eventually be placed in a large pot outdoors in summer and indoors in a cool place in winter, the plant is then deciduous.
