Rare Grafted Plinia Phitrantha Rosa De Pescoco
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:8207886 |
This variety of Jaboticaba was recently imported into the USA via seeds from Brazil in 2017.
This variety is relatively precocious, and can fruit in 4-6yr from seed. This variety is said to be extremely productive, fruiting multiple times per years and setting heavy crops. The fruits are called "Ros...a de Pescoco", which translates roughly to, "Long Neck, Pink Skin", because the shape of the fruit sometimes has a teardrop shape, with a long neck, and the skin is pink, not a black/purple when mature. Phitrantha varieties also have beautiful foliage.
This tree was grafted in the Fall of 2018 onto sabara rootstock which should make caring it similar to common jaboticaba varieties, and should mitigate any potential soil or water PH issues.
