Eugenia sp. Cereja Roxa is a very rare dwarf Eugenia found in northeastern Brazil. The fruits ripen to a deep dark purple and contain richly colored purple flesh that is extremely sweet and full of flavor. The flesh has a jelly-like texture and separates very easily from the seed, making it especially enjoyable for fresh eating. When picked fully ripe, collectors report no astringency.
Northeastern Brazil’s climate is warm and tropical to subtropical, with high humidity, seasonal rainfall, and sandy to well-draining soils. This species is adapted to consistent warmth and performs best in similar conditions with good drainage and regular moisture.
Its naturally compact growth habit makes it an excellent choice for container growers. Highly sought after by our customers, this variety sold out quickly once previously offered.
Seeds are sold in packs of one. They are shipped in humid vermiculite.
