What is Venus Fruit? Brief introduction of jinxing fruit
1. The English name of Jinxingguo is Starapple, which is a tropical fruit tree belonging to the genus Caprifoliaceae. It is native to the Caribbean, and is also known as Star Apple and Dairy Cow. In 1960s and 1970s, it was introduced into China from Southeast Asia and spread in Hainan, Guangdong, Taiwan Province, Fujian and Yunnan provinces. Venus fruit can be planted as a fruit tree, because its peculiar golden leaves can form a beautiful landscape with four golden leaves, which is of great ornamental value, especially in autumn, when its golden leaves set off small green fruits, it gives people a feeling of late autumn and spring. In addition, Venus fruit trees have elegant shapes and soft branches.

2. Venus pulp is smooth, soft and sweet, suitable for fresh food and can be made into candied fruit. It has no special flavor, but when it is mixed with citrus, especially oranges, the flavor can be greatly improved. In addition to being planted as a fruit tree, it also has an umbrella crown and leaves with different colors on the front and back, which is elegant in shape and very suitable for garden ornamental trees or shade trees. Ornamental trees are often used in Cuba, Jamaica, Sri Lanka, Hawaii and Florida.

3. The fruit is transected, and the cells radiate from the center to the periphery in a star shape. The fruit is as big as a mountain apple, so it is called "star apple". It blooms in September ~ 10, and the fruit ripens in May ~ June.
