Eugenia “bola negra doce” is a rare and impressive Eugenia species from Bahia, Brazil, where it grows in warm Atlantic Forest conditions. The tree reaches approximately 16 meters in height, developing into a large, well-formed canopy tree with dense evergreen foliage typical of vigorous Eugenia species.
The fruits are round, dark-colored, and highly palatable, with a sweet flavor profile complemented by a noticeable but pleasant touch of acidity. The taste is often compared to Eugenia candolleana, though this selection is reported to be more flavorful overall, with improved complexity and a slightly stronger acidic balance that enhances its freshness and eating quality.
Due to its combination of large tree size, attractive dark fruits, and superior flavor, Eugenia “bola negra doce” is considered a valuable and promising selection among rare Brazilian Eugenia species, especially for collectors interested in high-quality wild or semi-wild fruiting Myrtaceae.
Seeds are shipped in packs of 1, shipped in humid vermiculite.
