Eugenia sp Purple Plum - GERMINATED
Eugenia sp. 'Purple Plum'
Eugenia sp. 'Purple Plum' is an exciting new species discovered along the western Amazon coast of Brazil. This small, ornamental tree grows to about 6–8 feet in height, as seen in the accompanying photos. It should also be able to be kept smaller when grown in a container, making it a great option for limited spaces or patio gardening.
The tree begins fruiting in just 4–5 years and produces attractive, richly colored fruits with a sweet-acidic flavor. Each fruit contains a single fuzzy seed, surrounded by an abundance of juicy, flavorful flesh. According to the collector of the fruit, these are among the best Eugenia fruits for eating fresh, out of hand.
Both the foliage and the fruit are visually striking, making this species an excellent choice for ornamental planting as well as for its delicious fruit.
