🍒 Don't plant cherries until you see this one!

• 🍒 Cherry of the Rio Grande (Eugenia aggregata) is one of those tropical fruits you don't forget once you taste it. The fruit looks like a dark ruby jewel and ripens to almost black, with a sweet, full cherry-like flavor.
• 🍒 Unlike the temperate cherries, this one thrives in warm climates and starts flowering as early as March, keeping the harvest going well into summer.
• 🍒 This little fruit tree that fits anywhere! It's slender, branching, fits neatly in limited spaces or even in a pot, yet still produces plenty of fruit.
• 🍒 Can a tropical cherry really handle freezing temps? Once mature, Cherry of the Rio Grande can handle surprising cold snaps down into the 20s. A tough little tree that gives you a taste of the tropics right in your own backyard!
