Fruit trees at SSR

[bonnielynn]

Staying at the grandstand and outside my window is trees with fruit on it.. anyone familiar with this and know what type of fruit?

May be Disney Fruit - you know, placed there while you were sleeping, looks great, disappears overnight.

Remember, any snakes or kritters you run into at SSR are really only Disney Animatronics!

Do you have a photo?

Well, since we saw a big black racer snake over by the Grandstand last year, I'd say it is an apple. Your name isn't Eve by chance, is it??

Persimmons maybe? Can you describe them or maybe provide a photo?

the are small like a cherry tomato.. although some are reddish.. they look like a peach almost, but no fuzz.. and I have my camera, but nothing to connect it.. I will upload when I get home..

I think you are right.. googled them (persimmons) and it looks like them..

They have alot of flower trees at SSR that have what looks like fruit. I was at MK once when I saw the prettiest flowers growing in the bushes behind the castle (the walkway down to Liberty Square). I took a photo and found a groundskeeper over at Epcot and asked him. He told me they were Lantana a native of FL that most Floridians hate because they grow like weeds.
I bought one at Walmart and brought it home and put it in my front yard. It grew great in the summer but died over the winter, not hardy in CT. But I did enjoy it while it grew.
Going back to WDW in July and plan on buying another Lantana. The flowers stink but they are so pretty.

If they are small and in clusters like a cherry tomato, they could be loquats. They are usually not reddish, though.

I believe they are plums. I wish I took pictures but they look like these.
