Notes: | Ruth Smith's Beads (http://www.botanicalbeads.com/BBB_page_130.html): 'the fruits ... are dull green when ripe. Its tough hard rind contains one to three seeds. The outer coatin gof the seed, the endosperm, has an attractive distinctly ridged pattern. I, n Hawaii, the polished seeds are made into pendants.' |
