Lolly Berry Live Plant (Salacia Chinensis)

Lolly Berry/Salacia Chinensis is usually a climbing plant, though is sometimes a scrambling shrub and occasionally becomes more tree-like. It can grow tall.

The globose-to-ovate, red fruit contains a single seed and the skin of Salacia Chinensis fruits separates much like that of a Litchi, exposing a fleshy opaque aril that is very sweet, non-fibrous and tastes like watermelon cotton candy.
