Spoonflower's 'Tropical Fruits' Design Challenge.
’Melon balls gone troppo by Su_G' (https://www.spoonflower.com/designs/15103722): entry in Spoonflower's 'Tropical Fruits' Design Challenge. © Su Schaefer 2023 Who knew that there were so many tropical fruits? My working list included: avocado, banana, coconut, durian, fig, guava, honeydew melon, jackfruit, longan, lychee, mango , papaya (pawpaw), passionfruit, pineapple, rambutan, rockmelon, starfruit (carambola), watermelon - most of which grown in Australia's tropical north, while some also grow in semi-tropical/ temperate areas. The phrase 'gone troppo' has long been used to describe a local madness that comes over those who live in the extremely tropical areas at the time of the 'build up' - the extreme humidity that occurs before the monsoonal rains start. A simpler version is ’Gone plain troppo - fruits by Su_G' (https://www.spoonflower.com/designs/15102023). See other designs by Su_G.
