Eugenia myrcianthes - Uvaia do Campo Seeds

1 seed per pack. a.k.a. Hexachlamys edulis. An interesting Eugenia relative from South America, bearing 2" / 5 cm edible fruits having a peach-like flavor. Seeds are from a prolific tree with high quality fruits. The fruits are quite juicy, with some tartness, and ripen to yellow-orange. Overly ripe fruits are sometimes described as having garlicky overtones, but this seems to vary widely. Small tree to 25 ft / 8m. This species shows very nice subtropical cold tolerance, surviving mild freezes and frosts. Unknown minimum temperature tolerance, but at least to the low or mid 20's F. #4541
