| Lepisanthes rubiginosa | June 04 2025 | Buket Alue Puteh, Aceh, Indonesia |
Hi everyone, on this occasion I want to show you some portraits of shrub trees that have abundant fruit and can be consumed, if you live in a tropical area then this wild tree is familiar to you, but if you live in a city with different climate conditions then this tree is still foreign and you have never even found them, I found this shrub tree while exploring the forest a few days ago, and I was amazed because I had not seen this tree for a long time that had lots of fruit like the one I just found.
in our country, Indonesia, this shrub is known as "katilayu" while in the Acehnese local language this shrub is popularly known as "keulayu" and in Latin this tree is popularly known as "Lepisanthes rubiginosa" which is one of the trees that grows naturally in the wild without any human intervention in their growth process, this tree will bear fruit once a year and when the fruit is ripe, many birds will come to taste the delicious katilayu fruit, if you enjoy various types of fruit, then katilayu is one of the fruits you need to try, because the combination of astringent and sweet flavors gives a different sensation from many other fruits.
