The Brazilian Genipa (Genipa Americana, S. P. I. No. 44090). 



Outside of its native region this fruit is little known. In eastern Brazil it is commonly used, 

 and it is also grown in the West Indies. The russet fruits, sometimes nearly 4 inches long, have 

 the flavor of the quince. The tree can be grown onlv in regions free from severe frosts. See 

 also S. P. I. No. 34882. (Photographed by P. H. Dorsett, Bahia, Brazil, November 12, 1913; 

 P25009FS.)
