It is definitely the same Ram Phal in both the images. I told you it has so many varieties. The one grown in Ireland is quite different in color. Different regions have different names for the fruit. Could be called Tendu in Bastar. So which is the season for this Tendu (crop) fruit? Is it different than I have mentioned in the post? If it is then Maulik Joshi ji could get hold of it now. more
