64/ guajilote, Parmentiera aculeata

Bean tree, fixes N. Rats keep stripping off all the leaves so I have to put it on a slick high stand. I tried the leaves and they’re really grassy. 

Only water if it gets dry. Only fert if I panic bc leaves have been stripped off. Protect from freezing temps. 

It’s years from fruiting but I hope in the meantime I can make friends with someone from MX or LaAm who can tell me how to cook with it. (The fruit is too fibrous to eat out of hand.)
