Where do you see these red flowers? One thing that came to mind right away was the Framboyan tree.
Are these the red flowers?

Cause you are... but i'll forgive you since we talking about rulos after all. Yours sound like what we call a Jamaican rulo.
Like a common plantain, but short, fat, uncircumcised.
aranoid: How did that last adjective get there?Edit:

anyone know what a young passion fruit sapling looks like - i tried to find pics on google but nothing very productive....however i did manage to find out i was growing a papaya, I havent worked out whether it is bisexual yet (you only get fruit if you have a male and female or one bisexual)
No it's not. Fairly simple, as long as the photos are actually yours. Use one of the online photo posting services (Flikr, etc).
Elton's plant looks like Papaya/lechosa.
Maybe Elton's alleged papaya plant is hairy because is still young and Matilda's chinola is not hairy because...................ah i don't know what i'm saying, lol
but I loooove chinolas, they smell so good, it is such a tropical aroma, mmm

Sorry if this is a bit off topic but I figured my question might fit in a fruit thread. Why is it that strawberries are so expensive here in Santo Domingo at the supermarket? They are grown locally in places like Constanza and Jarabacoa but with the price you might think they are imported.
Also, does anyone know where to get them cheaper in SD?

you might want to start a new thread in Living, so that your question doesn't get lost in this one and so that you're certain to tap the expertise of people living full-time in the DR.
If I had to venture a guess about why so expensive, it's probably be the cost of transport. Ever taken that road to Constanza?

You're right, I'm sure the transport adds to the cost but I think I saw a container of maybe 12 strawberries at Bravo last week for RD$200. That's insane!
The road to Contanza may be windy and steep but man that price is....steep
Thing is that Elton's chinola leaf looks more like my chinola leaf than my Papaya leaf. But you are right maybe they change from young to old. Don't we all.
Whichever of them it is it will grow quickly, I had fruit in my first year off both of them.
Non hairy Matilda
