Inga grazielae is a small tree species in the Fabaceae family, native to the lowland tropical forests of southeastern Bahia, Brazil. It typically grows at elevations below 100 meters and reaches around 7 to 7.5 meters in height, with a slender trunk and compact form. The tree produces elongated, dark red fruits filled with a very sweet, fluffy pulp that is excellent eaten fresh. Its ornamental value is just as impressive—new growth and flowers emerge in striking pink tones, making it a beautiful addition to gardens or small agroforestry systems. The medium-sized canopy and attractive coloration make it stand out among Inga species.
This species is not only ornamental and edible, but also part of a genus known for enriching soil through symbiotic nitrogen fixation, which supports surrounding plant growth. It thrives in tropical climates and prefers fertile, well-drained soils with regular rainfall or irrigation. Its combination of edible fruit, ecological benefits, and aesthetic appeal makes it an ideal candidate for tropical gardens, small farms, or collectors seeking unusual and beautiful fruit trees.
Seeds are from cultivated trees. Seeds are shipped in packs of 1, shipped in humid vermiculite.
