    Item Description
    : This auction is for 5 fresh seeds of the Yellow Jaboticaba fruit tree.
    This plant is a small to tree, Normally it will remain quite short and compact, due to it's slow growing habit. this tree can reach 1 meter tall after many years.
    This plant is native to Brazil.
    It will start producing fruit/flowers at the height of about 1 feet or 3-5 years old.
    The fruit itself is borne on the branches and once the tree starts to bear the fruit will be abundant. The fruit has a taste similar to Peaches and a very nice juicy and sweet pulp. Fruits can be found in clusters on the  branches and that is quite ornamental as well. Time from flower to fully ripe fruit it can take only 3-5 months.
    A fully Grown plant can bear 100's of fruits every year.
    Growing
    : This plant is hardy to about 28F when fully grown, it can be grown anywhere in the tropics and the sub-tropics
    It requires good Drainage for best growth and will prefer acidic soil- I grow them only inside pots since my local ground is not acidic.
    The plant will benefit from full sun.
    This plant likes lots of water year round, the roots are shallow so make sure not the top layer completely dry, though on the other hand don't water too much, because the plant doesn't like to be flooded.
