I think my camera is busted (or it’s just my lack of photography prowess), they are looking pinkish in the photo, but it should be red

It is a Malpighia genus, but I don’t know the exact species to be honest

Studies show it has around 1,000–4,500 mg, of vitamin C, per 100 grams of fresh fruit, which is around 50–100 times than that of orange or lemon

    Neat. So many amazing fruits in the tropics that we don’t have. Based on my reading they may be too frost tender for my area (but with climate change, who knows…)

    Here’s some information if anyone else wants to learn more about growing them in more marginal climates like CA, TX, or FL: https://crfg.org/?s=malpighia
