Surinam Cherry (Eugenia uniflora)

Outplanted additional Surinam Cherry (Eugenia uniflora). This is native to tropical South America’s east coast, ranging from Suriname, French Guiana to southern Brazil, as well as Uruguay and parts of Paraguay and Argentina. 



The edible fruit is a botanical berry. The taste ranges from sweet to sour, depending on the cultivar and level of ripeness (the darker red to black range is quite sweet, while the green to orange range is strikingly tart). The fruit is high in vitamin C and a source of provitamin A. 



Ready to plant seedlings are available at BORIS PRIVATE SANCTUM.
