 | Eugenia aggregata Family: Myrtaceae Cherry of the Rio Grande, Cere Jodo Rio Grande Origin: Brazil         Small, often multi-branching tree or shrub, from 10-20ft high. They are hardy plants, to 20F when mature, though younger plants should be protected from frosts. Grow in full sun or part shade, water when flowering and fruiting, but plants are fairly drought tolerant. Small white flowers appear early in Spring and blooming and fruiting season continues for several months into Summer. Leaves are 2-3" long, glossy green, and somewhat folded down the center. This delicious cherry is typically 1-2 inches long and oval in shape. When ripe they are deep purple to black and have a full cherry-like flavor. Plants are tolerant of a variety of soils, but grow best in partly acidic soil. The trees can be grown in large pots, hedged, or used as a specimen. Read more about this fruit tree. |  |
