(see the cover on this page ) I have always looked at the cover tree and thought 'mmm yes, nice tree'. Just recently I realised that it says on the cover that the tree is a prunus incisa. Now I have one of these trees, and the fruit is NOTHING like that on the magazine cover. On the magazine there is what looks like a gold pomegranate or a christmas decoration or something. MY prunus incisa had tiny purple-black cherries, about 1/4" (6.35mm) size. Is this an example of artistic licence or is it a real prunus incisa fruit Can anyone enlighten me here?

They have occasionally put the wrong text with the wrong tree. It happens on the inside of the magazine too. Deadlines, they can be a real frustration sometimes. BTW it is a pomegranate.
