That's an amazing plant! I remember sucking on the seeds as a kid. I also remember seeing huge Citrons hanging like footballs on trees in someone's orchard, I think they were a fairly new thing then.
It was mulberries from a huge tree, not quite ripe peaches, and green walnuts which we feasted on at a derelict house when the school bus was very late one day and we all decided to take a walk. The bus went past as we went along the road so we hid behind the bushes. Then because I had missed a day at school I had to get my mum to write a letter saying why, but until then she hadn't know what we were up to!
