Why does everyone want a Miracle fruit plant? A Top Tropicals Garden Blog post.

Miracle Fruit - Synsepalum dulcificum

❓ Why does everyone want a Miracle fruit plant?

✨ Because it's pure magic for your taste buds! The small red berry of Miracle Fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum) contains a natural compound called miraculin that temporarily makes sour things taste sweet. Lemons taste like lemonade, vinegar like candy! It's fun, fascinating, and even helpful - especially for those undergoing chemotherapy who need help enjoying food again. A miracle? Pretty close!

🍬 Don't eat this candy… it's too pretty to unwrap!
  • 🍬 Adenium Candy is pure sugar for the eyes! Its cheerful yellow petals are dipped in cherry red like a summer lollipop, with layer upon layer of sweet swirls that look almost good enough to taste.
  • 🍬 But don't be fooled - this sugary beauty is all flower, no calories! Like most members of Apocinaceae plant family, Adenium sap can be irritating and poisonous iа digested.
  • 🍬 With its bold colors and ruffled texture, Candy is a joyful little show-off and a must-have for your garden candy shop. See photos of actual Candy Adenium in next post 👇

Too weird to ignore, too easy not to grow!
  • ⚡️Cryptocereus (Selenicereus) anthonyanus - Zig-Zag Cactus. Also known as Anthony's Rick-Rack or Fishbone Cactus, this oddball epiphyte is famous for its zigzagging, succulent leaves that look like a green lightning bolt.
  • ⚡️ In nature, it climbs trees using aerial roots, but it's happy in a pot too.
  • ⚡️Give it bright, indirect light and let the soil dry out completely between waterings.
  • ⚡️In spring, it may reward you with a rare night-blooming flower that lasts just one magical evening.
  • ⚡️ Easy, sculptural, and full of character!

👹The biggest in the world Vanilla dilloniana monster grew even bigger! 2025 update.

  • ⭐️ Vanilla dillioniana - The Biggest Vanilla Orchid grown in 100 gal pot by Robert Riefer's "Intelligent Design" in 2017 video got so big that Robert had to step it up again - in a giant 250 gal pool on wheels! Here are some photos of this world-famous Vanilla plant in full bloom.

  • ⭐️The Mother plant originated in 1927, awarded in 2011 with CHM certificate of Horticultural Merit by American Orchid Society.

  • ⭐️ Leafless Vanilla Orchid is an amazing exotic vanilla that forms a multi-branched, leafless vine reaching lengths up to 15 ft. The light green flowers are similar to Vanilla barbellata but the petals and sepals are longer and the fluted lip is a deep reddish-purple with a yellow crest.

  • ⭐️ Vanilla dilloniana is a very rare species and considered vulnerable, endangered across its range.

  • ⭐️ The plants we have for you at Top Tropicals are grown from cuttings of this very plant - in very limited quantities, don't miss the chance to get the offspring of this legendary plant!
