Small, bushy tree, it grows very slowly
and seldom exceeds a height of 4m in Australia.
The tree can bloom several times a year which can make it a
real bonus in the garden.
Life is very slow for the Jaboticaba and
germination is slow and a little erratic, with a high
viability but over a period rather than all at once. Summer harvest is now in.
Apologies for running out last year, but
that is the nature of things.

The Jaboticaba flowers are small, white flowers produced in profusion,
singly or in clusters, directly on the bark, all along the
trunk, limbs and larger branches several times a year.
The flowers give way to grapelike fruit but
with a thicker and tougher dark maroon-purple, almost black
skin. Jaboticaba fruit is produced directly upon the trunk and
larger branches, singly or in clusters from the ground up.
