Some of the lilkoi fruit we get is still hard when ripe fruit.
Since this is just one fruit, I would slice it open & check the fruit. If it is ready, then you will know more about your vine
We have 3 vines of regular lilikoi now, but have had just one & it fruited OK. All of our vines came from cuttings from a solitary vine that nice large fruits that did not shrivel when they were ripe... I have noticed that smaller fruit also seem to be ripe & shriveled...maybe it is a varietal thing...
