4-syllable Fruits that start with S

List of 4-syllable Fruits that start with S

1

Salmonberry

Rubus spectabilis

A bright orange-pink Pacific Northwest forest raspberry — eaten fresh by hikers, cooked traditionally by Coast Salish peoples, a key indicator of healthy temperate rainforest ecology.

2

Sapodilla

Manilkara zapota

A small brown tropical fruit with grainy sweet flesh tasting of brown sugar and pear — the same species as chico fruit, with an even longer history as the original chewing-gum source.

3

Serviceberry

Amelanchier canadensis (and other Amelanchier species)

North America's versatile wild fruit — small, blueberry-sized purple-red berries from the Amelanchier shrub/tree, with a sweet, almond-flavoured flesh beloved by birds and foragers; also called Juneberry, Saskatoon, or Shadbush.

4

Seville Orange

Citrus aurantium

The bitter orange used for the world's most celebrated marmalade — too sour and pungent to eat fresh, its thick peel and intensely flavoured juice are perfect for jam-making; the brief winter season (January–February) is eagerly awaited by British marmalade makers, and the orange's history in Spain stretches to the Moorish period.
