The Wonderful Jellyfruit Vine

Have you ever heard of a Jellyfruit Vine?
The fruit that it grows is a favourite of mine.
It tastes so delicious, it tastes so sublime
it seems to change colours and tastes all the time

I wrote down as much of it that I could know.
This book contains words and nice pictures to show
about how the vine flowers and how it grows
the fruit that will whiffle scents right up your nose.

There’s plenty of fruit and we love to share it.
If we have none right now just wait a bit.
Read while you wait, (this book makes a good sit)
And soon enough we’ll have more Jelly froo-it

The Jellyfruit Vine was written soon after The Food Garden At Number Seventy Three and I guess is a spiritual successor to that book. When we moved to our property just outside Malanda we found a tree I had never heard of before, full of fruit. The tree was a Jamaican Cherry and the fruit is quite unlike anything I have tasted before. That got me thinking about some fantastical vine that maybe no one has ever heard of except the lucky few who just happen to have one…

This edition of the book is a softcover, perfect bound (which means it has like a squared off spine as opposed to a folded over spine) and is roughly A4 in size. Inner pages are 110 GSM so the book has a high quality feel to it.
