Great shot showing the texture and size of the fruit. I was surprised to see it occurs in Australia as some sources indicate it to be endemic to Southern Africa - it takes just one good photographer to suprise a number of scientists! What is the botanical classification? In Africa it is Kigelia africana (or pinnata) / Worstenboom / Sausage Tree. It has a beautiful deep red flower. Thanks for sharing.
