They appear to be seed-pods of some form.
About the size and weight of a softball.
If the surface of the unit is disturbed, they ooze a white, sticky, gooey juice .
Kelly sliced one in half to see what the inside was like.
No single stone-type pit and not any other kind of visible seeds of any type.
Just a fibrous and somewhat stringy looking material that follows in the 'brain-matter' pattern that is on the outside of them.
Anyone have any clue?
I haven't dedicated much time in my 'research' into them, just thought I'd throw it out there for conversation.

ReplyDeleteMy guess either a fungus or tree galls
ReplyDeleteIts actually called a hedge apple for slang. Or Osage Orange, but don't eat it!
ReplyDeleteYou got a deal! No eating of the hedge apples I'll add this to the 'apples I don't eat' list along with Road Apples. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGood ID, Cyndi! We saw a lot of these in eastern Nebraska on our Big Trip a year ago. Seems so unfair to call them oranges of ANY description if we can't eat 'em! Whose idea was that, anyway?!
