🍇 What is Jaboticaba? I like the sound of this word! 😁

Jaboticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora) is the most popular native fruit of Brazil that famous Brazilian Vine La Vino Tinto is made of!🍷

• 
  🟣 Grape-like purple fruit with a thick skin and delicious melting pulp somewhat resembling Northern Black Currant in flavor.
• 
  🟣 Trees grow very slowly and due to small leaves and dwarfish growth habit are often used as bonsai. Some old bonsai specimens can fruit.
• 
  🟣 Larger specimens are very valuable because it takes Jaboticaba up to 7 years from seed to start fruiting.
• 
  🟣 Similar to Mamey, Jaboticaba has cauliflorous fruit - that grow on main stems or woody trunks.
• 
  🟣 Jaboticaba is relatively cold hardy, mature trees are taking down to 23 F for short periods without serious damage.

🦔 What is this spiny Hedgehog fruit and how does it taste?

👀 This is one of the coolest looking tropical fruit!

Annona montana - Mountain Soursop or Hedgehog Annona. It is also called Wild Custard Apple, Guanabana de Monte, or Wild Soursop.

• 
  📍 This fruit is prized for its deliciously sweet and tangy fruit, reminiscent of a blend between pineapple and strawberry. It tastes similar to regular Soursop (or Guanabana), with slightly milder flavor. The pulp is highly scented.
• 
  📍 The fruit, up to a pound, has the most unusual looks! Just look at these curious Hedgehog spines! 🦔
• 
  📍 The tree is medium sized, with beautiful, large, leathery dark green leaves that emit a strong aroma when crushed.
• 
  📍 Mountain Soursop is much more cold hardy than the Soursop, established trees can take some frost, down to 24F when full grown.
• 
  📍 Trees produce within just 2-3 years from seed, like many Annonas, and can happily grow and produce in a large container.

👨�‍👧 We guarantee that everyone who sees this fruit in your garden will ask for seeds even before they taste the fruit! And you will have lots of seeds to share because Mountain Soursop is very reliable producer with many seeds in each fruit.

🍊 Why exotic Mamey fruit is so much wanted?

Pouteria sapota, or Mamey Sapote - is Cuban favorite. It is considered by Cubans to produce the best fruit in the world.

🍹 The fruit has delicious bright orange soft flesh, sweet and pumpkin-like in flavor. The Mamey fruit is eaten fresh, in milk shakes and ice cream.

🌳 Mamey is a slow growing, compact tree, but needs some space to spread the branches. It normally grows 20 ft in height and 20 ft wide.

🌺 Have you ever seen a hibiscus like that? This flower will blow your mind! 👀

• 
  💀 Hibiscus schizopetalus - Skeleton Hibiscus, or Coral Hibiscus - earns its nickname due to the delicate, lacy appearance of its flowers.

• ♦️ When the flowers bloom, they create a beautiful, ethereal effect, which has led to the association with the term "skeleton." This unique characteristic sets it apart from other hibiscus varieties, hence the distinctive moniker.
•

• 
  ♦️ Rare and hard to find.
• 
  ♦️ Grows rapidly and blooms freely.
•
