They call it Tianshan which i know absolutely nothing about. She eats it fresh like an apple. I have never seen this. Named after this mountain region where they live Tian Shan - Wikipedia . Since it grows in a cold mountain range perhaps we can grow it. I saw it called “Tian Shan Mountain Snow Lotus Seeds” im looking here Search | Collection
Isn’t that Kadsura? I have thought about growing it but a part shade vining plant is hard for me to figure out a spot for it.
They appear to sell some
