Pulled these today. Only got through peeling half of the gandule pods. I’ll be handing out starfruit to the neighbors.

      Well. This is south Florida… I’ve had gandule trees since I married my Puerto Rican wife. They grow like weeds here…super easy. Gandules are beans from the pods you see in the bag. Arroz con gandules is a beloved Puerto Rican dish.

      The starfruit is also super easy to grow here. Matches the PR island climate.

      Getting a harvest from these 2 down here almost feels like cheating its so easy.
