Myrciaria glomerata is an extremely rare Myrciaria species native to the Atlantic Forest of Minas Gerais, Brazil, typically found in the understory at around 1000 meters altitude. This small, compact tree grows 2–3 meters tall and is highly ornamental, particularly for its vibrant young foliage. It is well-suited for small gardens and container cultivation.
The tree produces almost spherical fruits about 2.5 cm in diameter, with a thin, intensely scarlet-red skin that is slightly hairy at the apex. The pulp is reddish, juicy, sweet, and free of acidity, making it excellent for fresh consumption. Its combination of rare fruit, attractive foliage, and manageable size makes Myrciaria glomerata a prized choice for collectors and enthusiasts of tropical fruits.
Seeds are sold in packs of one. They are shipped in humid vermiculite.
