The Marron™ Medlar is a stunning tree featuring tropical looking foliage and white flowers that bloom at the branch tips. Its unique chestnut-colored fruits are harvested firm in late autumn and must undergo a ripening process called "bletting" in a cool to reach peak flavor. Once soft-ripe, the fruit offers a sweet, tangy, custard-like texture reminiscent of cinnamon-spiced applesauce, making it a gourmet choice for fresh eating or creating jellies and preserves.
